Cell Culture & Microbiology Calculators

Growth kinetics, plate counts and cell quantitation math used at the bench in tissue culture rooms and microbiology labs. Converts counts, absorbance and dilutions into cells per mL, doubling times and CFU titers.

Which one do you need?

Cell Doubling Time Calculator
Calculate population doubling time, specific growth rate and number of population doublings from two cell counts taken a known time apart in culture.
Bacterial Generation Time Calculator
Calculate the number of generations, generation time and mean growth rate constant k from two bacterial counts taken across a log-phase incubation.
CFU per mL Plate Count Calculator
Convert colony counts into CFU per mL or CFU per gram using your plating volume and dilution, with the countable range and log10 titre worked out for you.
Hemocytometer Cell Count Calculator
Convert Neubauer hemocytometer counts into cells per mL and total cells, correcting for trypan blue dilution and chamber depth, with a count-quality check.
