You are growing bacteria containing a large plasmid in liquid medium. The doubling time of the bacteria with plasmid is exactly 30 minutes. You take 1 microliter of an overnight culture that contains 1 X 10 to the 7th bacteria per mL and dilute it into a flask containing 1 liter of fresh medium and continue growing the cutlure for 15 hours. HOw many bacteria are present in the initial 1 microliter sample of the overnight culture?
