Calculate Plasmid Molar Ratio





Formula

The formula to calculate the number of copies of plasmid (P) is:

\[ P = \frac{I \times W_p}{W_i} \]

Where:

Definitions

Example

Let's say the number of copies of insert is 100, the molecular weight of plasmid is 3000 g/mol, and the molecular weight of insert is 500 g/mol. Using the formula:

\[ P = \frac{100 \times 3000}{500} \]

We get:

\[ P = 600 \]

So, the number of copies of plasmid is 600.
