Resuspension Calculator

Find buffer volume to reach a target concentration.

Buffer volume to add (mL) 2.5

Formula: volume = mass ÷ target concentration

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Pellet / sample mass = 5 mg

3. Target concentration = 2 mg/mL

5. Buffer volume to add = Pellet / sample mass / Target concentration = 5 / 2 = 2.5mL

Did we solve your problem today?

Find how much buffer to add to resuspend a sample at a target concentration.

The math behind it

volume = sample mass ÷ target concentration.

5 mg at 2 mg/mL → 2.5 mL.
