Path length as a function of volume added to a well
Calculated from the volume of a frustrum using the plate dimensions given in the link above.

| Volume (µl) | Path Length (cm) | 
|---|---|
| 50 | 0.15 | 
| 100 | 0.29 | 
| 150 | 0.44 | 
| 200 | 0.58 | 
| 250 | 7.2 | 
| 300 | 0.85 | 
| 350 | 0.99 | 
| 400 | 1.12 | 
Converting absorbance of a 200μl sample to OD600 using the path length calculated above yields very different numbers than when using a calibration produced from samples measured in both the Endy Lab portable spec and the plate reader.
