Bench Calculators
Dilute a stock and plan a master mix without a spreadsheet. Leave one of the four dilution quantities empty and it is solved in the unit you chose; pick a vendor reaction setup and the number of reactions, and every reagent is scaled with the vendor's final concentrations kept.

What it does
- 01C1V1 = C2V2 solved for whichever of the four quantities is left empty
- 02Molar, mass per volume, fold and percent concentrations, each quantity in its own unit
- 03The diluent volume to add and the fold dilution, beside the solved quantity
- 04A refusal, not a negative volume, when the asked-for dilution would raise the concentration
- 05Master mix from the vendor's own published reaction setup, scaled to any reaction volume with every final concentration kept
- 06Water made up to volume and the template added per tube, so the mix and the tube volumes are both stated
- 07Overage as a percent of the mix, and a custom recipe in place of the vendor setup
What it runs on
The arithmetic is checked against the vendor's own reaction-setup table: NEB's 20 µl and 50 µl Phusion setups both come out of one scaling. The panel runs on @ports/bench.
Everything runs client-side. Files are parsed in the browser and projects are saved on this machine, so an unpublished sequence is never uploaded.
Questions
- Why is there no water volume to type in?
- Because the vendor writes it as "to volume": water is whatever the other components leave of the reaction, so it is calculated, and the recipe always adds up to the reaction volume.
- Can it convert ng/µl to µM?
- No. That needs the molar mass of the molecule, so the two concentrations of a dilution must be in the same kind of unit.
