Description
BenchBuddy brings together the calculations and bench tasks you do every day in a molecular biology lab into a single tool. Calculations that used to live on paper notes and spreadsheets are completed right at the bench, on your phone.
■ Main Features
[Calculator] - Reagent mass calculation (compute the required mass from concentration, volume, and molecular weight) - Dilution calculation (C1V1 = C2V2, multi-component batch calculation) - Serial dilution (build a serial dilution series from a stock; per-tube transfer and diluent volumes, with pipetting-accuracy warnings) - PCR master mix calculation (factoring in sample count and overage) - One-tap start from 6 built-in presets (Standard Taq / KOD One / PrimeSTAR Max / Q5 / Colony PCR / SYBR Green qPCR) - Split per-sample additions like template or colony lysate from the master mix, and calculate master mix and per-tube components separately
[Gel (Agarose Gel)] - Predict migration positions for DNA ladders and sample bands - Visualize the position on the gel for any bp size you enter - Supports 100 bp / 1 kb / 50 bp ladder standards
[Bench Assistant (Multi-well Plate Helper)] - Navigate plate workflows (96-well, 384-well, etc.) well by well - The next well to process is displayed large; tap OK to log progress - Flexible correction with Skip / Undo - See done / remaining / skipped at a glance in the plate view
[Recipes, Templates & Sharing] - Save and recall frequently used calculation settings as recipes, and Bench Assistant procedures as templates - Available across PCR mix, dilution, serial dilution, mass calculation, and Bench Assistant - Export / import recipes as .benchbuddy.json files to share with labmates (no account or cloud) - Copy or share any calculation result as text — paste straight into Notion, Slack, or your ELN
■ Highlights - Japanese / English UI - Simple, easy-to-read design
■ Upcoming - More calculator features
Make every bench experiment faster and more accurate.
