Smarter tools for better science

Plate layout designer

Map samples, standards, controls and blanks onto 6 to 384-well plates, then copy the layout into your notebook or spreadsheet.

Molarity and mass

Work out how much to weigh, what concentration you made, or what volume you need.

mass = concentration × volume × MW
g/mol

Example loaded: NaCl (58.44 g/mol) at 150 mM in 500 mL.

How to use it

  1. Choose the plate size and whether to fill down columns or across rows.
  2. Auto-fill standards, blanks, controls and samples with replicates next to each other, or paint wells by hand. You can leave the outer wells empty to avoid edge effects.
  3. Copy the layout to paste into your spreadsheet or lab notebook.

The layout is saved on your device, so it's still there when you come back.

Use it with curve fitting

Paste your plate reader values into curve fitting and it reads the standards and samples straight from this layout, so there is no re-typing.
