Serial Dilution Calculator
What is this calculator used for?
This Serial Dilution Calculator helps you compute the final concentration of a solution after a series of stepwise dilutions. It's widely used in biology and chemistry, particularly in microbiology experiments, assays, and titrations.
How to use this calculator
- Enter the initial concentration of your stock solution (C₀).
- Provide the dilution factor (D), such as 10 for a tenfold dilution.
- Enter the number of dilution steps (n) to be performed.
- The final concentration after n dilutions will be calculated automatically.
Formula
Final Concentration (Cₙ) = C₀ / Dⁿ
Example
If you start with a solution of 100 mg/mL, perform 4 tenfold (D = 10) serial dilutions, the final concentration will be:
Cₙ = 100 / 10⁴ = 100 / 10,000 = 0.01 mg/mL
