BioTools AI: molecular biology lab calculators
A free online collection of calculators for routine molecular-biology tasks, including PCR setup, qPCR analysis, dilutions, cell seeding, and transformation efficiency.
- For
- Molecular-biology researchers, students, and lab technicians
- Worth noticing
- The page says standard formulas perform the arithmetic, while AI is limited to explaining results.
Field notes
Users are asked to enter experiment values such as concentrations, volumes, or cell counts, then receive a result beside a step-by-step protocol; the page says a plain-language AI explanation follows. The listed set covers PCR master mix, ΔΔCt and primer efficiency, nucleic-acid dilution, molarity, cell seeding, MOI, and transformation efficiency. The site states that standard formulas perform calculations and AI only explains them; this is a homepage claim, not independently tested here.
