Calculate dilution from known concentrations

Usage

dilute(c1, c2 = min(c1), v2, round_for_pipettes = TRUE, quiet = FALSE)

Arguments

c1: Numeric. Initial concentration of sample.
c2: Numeric. Target concentration of sample.
v2: Numeric. Target final volume of sample. If round_for_pipettes = TRUE, assumes volume is mL.
round_for_pipettes: Logical. If TRUE, rounds values to the accuracy of standard pipettes using make_pipette_vol.
quiet: Logical. If FALSE, will warn when dilution is impossible to do without concentrating sample.

Value

a named list, with sample_to_add as the volume of sample to add, and add_to as the volume to dilute the sample into.

Examples

dilute(203, 70, 10)
#> $sample_to_add
#> [1] 3.45
#> 
#> $add_to
#> [1] 6.55
#> 
dilute(203, 70, 10, round_for_pipettes = FALSE)
#> $sample_to_add
#> [1] 3.448276
#> 
#> $add_to
#> [1] 6.551724
