Compute PFU/mL titer from plaque counts, dilution factor, and plated volume, with multi-plate statistics and 30–300 counting-range warnings.
Call this tool from your code in three languages.
curl -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:3003/en/api/tools/plaque-forming-unit' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"plaqueCounts":"112, 104","dilutionFactor":1000000,"platedVolumeUl":100}'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/plaque-forming-unit| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| plaqueCounts | textarea | Yes | Plaque counts from each plate, separated by commas, spaces, or new lines. |
| dilutionFactor | number | Yes | Fold-dilution of the plated sample relative to the original (10⁻⁶ → 1000000). |
| platedVolumeUl | number | Yes | Volume of the diluted sample mixed into the top agar (100 µL is typical). |
