Specific activity = U ÷ mg protein (or U/mL ÷ mg/mL): the purity metric of every purification table, with nkat/mg conversion and the kcat/MW purity ceiling. Educational use only.
Call this tool from your code in three languages.
curl -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:3003/en/api/tools/specific-activity-calculator' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"mode":"mass","activityU":40,"proteinMg":5,"activityPerMl":250,"proteinMgPerMl":10,"decimalPlaces":2}'Send a POST request with your inputs as JSON. File parameters require a separate upload first.
POST http://127.0.0.1:3003/en/api/tools/specific-activity-calculator| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| mode | select | Yes | Enter totals (U and mg) or concentrations (U/mL and mg/mL) — the ratio is the same. |
| activityU | number | Yes | Total activity in the sample (mass mode). |
| proteinMg | number | Yes | Total protein mass in the same sample (mass mode). |
| activityPerMl | number | Yes | Activity per mL of sample (concentration mode). |
| proteinMgPerMl | number | Yes |
Add this tool to your Model Context Protocol server so AI agents can list and call it.
