  • The DESIGN program facilitates the creation, refinement, and visualization of experimental designs.
  • The EVALUATE program provides statistical analysis of experimental data based on chosen designs.

    • Main Results:

    • The DESIGN program allows iterative improvement of experimental setups using artificial data.
    • The EVALUATE program offers robust statistical evaluation of experimental outcomes.
    • Both programs are grounded in practical considerations and sound theoretical principles for dilution analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed computer programs offer a comprehensive solution for the design and statistical evaluation of limiting and serial dilution experiments.
    • These tools empower researchers to create more effective experimental designs and achieve more accurate data analysis.
    • The programs are expected to improve the reproducibility and reliability of results in relevant scientific fields.
