How to use this tool

  1. Calculate concentration and overall dilution after repeated identical dilution steps.
  2. Set initial concentration, aliquot volume, final volume per step, number of dilution steps in the indicated units.
  3. Calculate and compare final concentration, overall dilution factor.

Try this example

{
  "initial": 1000,
  "aliquot": 1,
  "total": 10,
  "steps": 3
}

Accuracy and scope

Mathematical dilution model only; assumes complete mixing and no volume contraction. Not a laboratory preparation protocol.
