AI Thread Summary
To convert a titer to micrograms, it's essential to know the initial concentration in mass per volume. A titer indicates the highest dilution that still yields a positive result, which can be expressed as a ratio, such as 1:256. This ratio can be used to calculate the concentration in micrograms if the starting concentration is provided. Without the initial mass/volume concentration, the conversion cannot be accurately completed. Understanding both the titer and the initial concentration is crucial for the conversion process.

I'm not the best at math and I've been asked to recruit for a study, but with lab results they feed out only in titers. My request is in microgram, how do I convert a titer (A titer (or titre) is a way of expressing concentration.[1] Titer testing employs serial dilution to obtain approximate quantitative information from an analytical procedure that inherently only evaluates as positive or negative. The titer corresponds to the highest dilution factor that still yields a positive reading.[2] For example, positive readings in the first 8 serial twofold dilutions translate into a titer of 1:256 (i.e., 2−8)) into a microgram (µg or mcg)? Can anyone help me and figure it out?

Welcome to PF;
You also need the initial concentration in mass/vol.
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
