Drug Formulation

Serial Dilution & Dose-Response Planner

Equal-fold series with constant vehicle: each tube keeps V after passing T = V ÷ (fold − 1) to the next.

100 for a neat DMSO stock

e.g. 10 µL into 90 µL = 10

Tube 1: stock0.15 µL
Tube 1: diluent149.8 µL
Tubes 2…n: diluent each100 µL
Transfer between tubes50 µL
Solvent in diluent (keeps vehicle constant)0.1%
Solvent in assay0.01%

Discard 50 µL from the last tube so every tube holds 100 µL.

  • ⚠️ Tube 1 needs only 0.15 µL of stock, below reliable pipetting. Make an intermediate dilution of the stock first.
