Build the study budget.
Show every assumption.

A local calculator that separates samples, billable determinations, laboratory costs, analysis, management and contingency. No data leave your browser.

Enter your study assumptions.

Defaults are illustrative arithmetic, not a quote, assay recommendation or sample-size advice. Replace them with your own scoped costs.

Assumes independent destructive samples at each time point.
Technical repeats do not increase independent biological sample size.

The arithmetic is visible.

Sample units = groups × independent replicates × independent time points
Billable determinations = sample units × technical determinations
Variable lab cost = determinations × price per determination
Subtotal = variable lab + setup + shipping + analysis + management
Total = subtotal × (1 + contingency / 100)

This is not a power calculator. Repeated measures on the same biological unit need a different design; they are not independent samples. The tool does not advise how many samples make a study scientifically valid. Use the sample-size sketch only for its stated statistical assumptions and obtain qualified study-design advice.
