Dilution factor
From LIMSWiki
When a sample is diluted, its dilution factor = (Concentration before dilution / Concentration after dilution).[1]
In regards to the overall dilution of the aliquot subjected to analysis, a value of one corresponds to nominal conditions for the method. Values greater than one correspond to dilutions. Values less than one correspond to concentrations.
