Formula and methodology
Formula: For a one-step dilution, C₁V₁ = C₂V₂, so stock volume V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁ and diluent volume = V₂ − V₁; dilution factor = C₁/C₂.
This is a transparent one-step dilution calculation for any concentration and volume units that are used consistently. It checks that the target is no stronger than the stock, reports how much stock contributes to the final mixture, and keeps the remaining volume as diluent rather than treating the target concentration as a recipe for a particular reagent.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Stock concentration — concentration units; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000000000000
- Target concentration — same units; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000000000000
- Final volume — volume units; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000000000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Stock concentration | 100 |
| Target concentration | 10 |
| Final volume | 50 |
Use 5 concentration-volume units of stock and 45 volume units of diluent to prepare 50 volume units at 10 concentration units; the dilution factor is 10.
Assumptions and limits
- Stock and target concentrations use the same concentration unit, and the final volume uses one consistent volume unit.
- The stock is homogeneous and the target can be reached by adding a compatible diluent without changing the concentration definition.
- This page does not choose a biological protocol, cell line, buffer, viability condition, mixing order, or pipette technique.
