Unit-aware by default
Mix nM, µM, mM, ng, µg, µL and mL without doing conversions in your head.
RESEARCH CALCULATORS, REBUILT FOR THE BENCH
Calculate less.
Experiment with confidence.
Tossora Lab turns experimental inputs into ready-to-pipette recipes, plate plans and scaled protocols — with unit handling and sanity checks built in.

Dilution
A dilution calculator that also catches impractical pipetting and solvent carryover.
BENCH RECIPE✓ READY
2µLstock
+998µLdiluent
Mix to 1 mL final volume. Calculated stock-solvent carryover: 0.2%.
- Pipette 2 µL of the 10 mM stock.
- Add 998 µL diluent and mix thoroughly.

Tossora Lab finishes the bench decision.
Every tool is designed around the moment after the math: what to pipette, how much to prepare, what might be impractical, and what belongs in the protocol.

DESIGNED TO CATCH THE SECOND ERRORThe math can be right
Tossora Lab checks what a plain formula does not.The math can be right
and the experiment still be wrong.
Bench-feasibility warnings
Flags sub-µL handling, solvent carryover and impossible mixtures before they reach the pipette.
Experimental context
Replicates, overage, viability, purity and plate presets are part of the calculation — not afterthoughts.
Private by design
Calculations run in your browser. No account is required, and experimental inputs are not submitted to a Tossora Lab database.
FORMULAS & ASSUMPTIONS
Know exactly what the calculator is doing.
Tossora Lab exposes the core equation behind each workflow and adds practical checks around the math. These tools support research planning; your approved protocol, reagent specification and instrument guidance remain authoritative.
Dilution & treatment
C₁V₁ = C₂V₂Concentrations and volumes are normalized to base units before solving. Solvent carryover is calculated from the stock fraction.
Molarity & stock
n = m / MWMoles are derived from mass and molecular weight; stock preparation can correct the weighed mass for entered assay/purity.
Cell seeding
cells ÷ viable densityTarget cell count is scaled by well count and overage, then corrected using the entered viability fraction.
DNA/RNA copies
copies = mol × NₐCopy number uses the defined Avogadro constant, with molecule mass estimated from sequence length and molecule type.
Centrifugation
RCF = 1.118×10⁻⁵ × r × RPM²Rotor radius is expressed in centimeters. Always use the actual rotor radius specified for your centrifuge setup.
qPCR relative expression
fold = (1 + E)⁻ΔΔCtEfficiency-aware comparative Ct requires a suitable reference assay and a predefined analysis plan.
QUICK ANSWERS
Before you use Tossora Lab at the bench.
Does Tossora Lab save my experimental inputs?
No Tossora Lab account or hosted experiment database is used by these calculators. Calculations run in the browser.
Can I use the generated recipe as my protocol?
Use it as a calculation and planning aid. Verify critical values, material specifications, route limits and procedures against your approved protocol and institutional requirements.
Why does Tossora Lab warn about tiny pipetting volumes?
A mathematically correct dilution can still be impractical at the bench. Tossora Lab surfaces small-volume and solvent-carryover risks so you can redesign the preparation before dosing.
