DailyCalcs - Science calculator to simplify everyday tasks in the lab [iPhone]

DailyCalcs turns your phone into a science calculator to simplify everyday tasks in the lab. Eight calculators, including a new Specific Productivity Calculator for use with fed-batch cell culture processes and a Transfection calculator you can use to simplify transfection experimental setup.

The Specific Productivity Calculator for fed-batch cell culture processes takes into account Duration of Culture (Days), VCD and Titer levels to calculate early and late qP results. Next step recommendations are suggested based on the calculations, with an in-app ability to email your results for consultation assistance.

The Transfection calculator addresses the transfection reagent, number of samples, the vessel size, and number of replicates and it calculates the exact amounts of all necessary reagents and media for your experiment.

This application features the 8 following calculators absolutely free:

1. Molarity Calculator

The Molarity Calculator tool will allow you to find the mass required to prepare a solution of known volume & concentration, find the volume of solution required to dissolve a known mass to a specific molarity or find a concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass & volume.

2. Dilution Calculator

The Dilution Calculator tool will allow you to determine the required volume of a stock solution of known concentration to make a final solution of desired volume & concentration. This tool greatly simplifies the everyday tasks of making solutions in the lab.

3. Molecular Weight Calculator

The Molecular Weight Calculator will compute the average molecular weight (MW) of molecules by entering in the chemical formula (i.e. C3H2O4). Supports complex molecules such as "C3H2(NO)4" & "C3H2Cl4.(H2O)3" & is linked into the Molarity Calculator to work in tandem for molarity calculations.

4. Cell Culture Reference Charts

Reference charts for cell culture dishes, plates & flasks showing vital data such as growth surface area, cell seeding density, number of cells at confluency, volume of growth media necessary & required versene or trypsin volume for cell detachment.

5. Unit Converter

A comprehensive unit converter tool capable of converting over 44 units in 7 different types of measurements including the following:

Distance converter (m, ft, in, cm, mm, yards & km)
Speed converter (m/sec, ft/sec, in/sec, cm/sec, km/sec, miles/sec, miles/hr, km/hr, knots)
Area converter (m2, ft2, in2, yd2, acres, km2, miles2)
Volume converter (liters, m3, cm3, ft3, in3, yards3)
Weight converter (kg, g, oz, lbs, tons)
Temperature converter (Celcius, Farenheit, Kelvin)
Molar converter (mole, mM, μmol, nmol, pmol, fmol).

6. Conversions for Media

Unit of measure conversion tool for powder and AGT media that converts Gibco powder and AGT media products between KG and L.

7. Specific Productivity Calculator

The Specific Productivity Calculator for fed-batch cell culture processes takes into account Duration of Culture (Days), VCD and Titer levels to calculate early and late qP results. Next step recommendations are suggested based on the calculations, with an in-app ability to email your results for consultation assistance.

8. Transfection Calculator

Transfection calculator – simplify transfection experimental setup with this new calculator. Just specify the transfection reagent, number of samples, the vessel size, and number of replicates and it calculates the exact amounts of all necessary reagents and media for your experiment.
