About Aptamer Length & Molecular Weight Calculator
Get the length (nt) and molecular weight of a aptamer (ssDNA) from its sequence — for molar conversions and ordering. The calculation uses MW = Σ nucleotide masses. Why it matters: Primer design, GC content and melting temperature decide whether a PCR amplifies cleanly or produces nothing. Small sequence mistakes propagate into failed experiments and wasted reagents. Aptamer MW is needed to convert between mass and moles. Before you trust the number, double-check: mismatched forward/reverse primer Tm; primers with runs of G/C causing mispriming; ignoring secondary structure in GC-rich templates. Everything is computed on your own device — nothing you enter is uploaded — so the tool is safe for unpublished sequences, proprietary formulations and sensitive measurements, and easy to cite in a methods section or lab SOP.
