Once you have your experimental results (e.g., absorbance from an ELISA or radioactivity from a binding assay), you can use the GraphPad Prism desktop software to turn those values back into molarity units. Step 1: Interpolating from a Standard Curve

Prism’s built-in dose-response models expect .

The most common workflow for determining unknown molarities is to create a standard curve:

Determine exactly how many grams of a compound you need to weigh out to reach a target molarity.

Even with the best software, the accuracy of your molarity calculations depends on your inputs: Molarity Calculator - GraphPad

To plot a standard curve, follow these additional steps:

To create a molarity graph in GraphPad, follow these steps:

: The calculator supports units from femtomolar to molar , and Prism allows you to easily transform these values (such as converting to log scale) for non-linear regression analysis.
