Light scattering measurements of different growth media. Raw values of light scattering were determined for different solutions and fission yeast media using a single fixed glass vial in a single eVOLVER sleeve. For each condition, 5 consecutive raw measurements were recorded (averages and standard deviations are shown) and the differences in average raw values with that of water were calculated. OD595 were determined using a standard spectrophotometer, with water used as a blank. The differences in light scattering between the solutions are in the range of the measurement noise (figure 2b). PBS is the standard solution for the calibration procedure. EMM: minimal medium. EMM6S: supplemented minimal medium. YE4S: supplemented yeast extract-based rich medium.
