How can I calculate the population doubling time?
The population doubling time (PDT; also called generation time, tg) is typically calculated during the logarithmic (exponential) growth phase of a cell culture. It describes the time required for a cell population to double in number.
Formula
tg = t / n
where:
- tg = population doubling time (hours)
- t = time interval (in hours) between two cell counts
- n = number of population doublings during this time interval
Formula
tg = t / n
where:
- tg = population doubling time (hours)
- t = time interval (in hours) between two cell counts
- n = number of population doublings during this time interval
