neutral  abe(L)solano: cuidado que dilución no es equivalente de disolución.

disagree  Neil Ashby: This is a misleading 'equivalent' - this is not a process which involves 21 dilutions - it's very unnatural, no supporting evidence.

disagree  M. C. Filgueira: Aunque llego tarde para esta consulta, no se trata de una serie de 21 diluciones, sino, como de una dilución 1:21 (1 volumen de la solución que se diluye + 20 volúmenes de diluyente), como dijo Daniel. Saludos cordiales.
