Titres are sometimes expressed by the denominator only, for example 1:256 is written 256. [3] The term also has two other, conflicting meanings. In titration, the titer is the ratio of actual to nominal concentration of a titrant, e.g. a titer of 0.5 would require 1/0.5 = 2 times more titrant than nominal. This is to compensate for possible ...
The plaque reduction neutralization test is used to quantify the titer of neutralizing antibody for a virus. [1] [2]The serum sample or solution of antibody to be tested is diluted and mixed with a viral suspension.
Virus quantification is counting or calculating the number of virus particles (virions) in a sample to determine the virus concentration. It is used in both research and development (R&D) in academic and commercial laboratories as well as in production situations where the quantity of virus at various steps is an important variable that must be monitored.
Tiltre became titre, [4] which thus came to mean the "fineness of alloyed gold", [5] and then the "concentration of a substance in a given sample". [6] In 1828, the French chemist Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac first used titre as a verb (titrer), meaning "to determine the concentration of a substance in a given sample". [7]

All four living ex-presidents paid tribute to Jimmy Carter, the longest-living former commander-in-chief in U.S. history who died on Sunday.
Viral load is often expressed as viral particles, (virions) or infectious particles per mL depending on the type of assay. A higher viral burden, titre, or viral load often correlates with the severity of an active viral infection. The quantity of virus per mL can be calculated by estimating the live amount of virus in an involved fluid.
