Positive Probability Limited Optimal Pool Size Calculator
Input
Desired Maximum Pooled Test Positive Probability (<1)
Input the desired maximum probability of positive pooled tests. Use decimal fraction (say 0.5) instead of % (say 50%).
The default value of the desired maximum probability is 0.5, meaning that you want the largest pool size such that about 50% of the pooled tests are expected to be positive.
Un-pooled Test Positive Probability (<1)
Input the probability of positive un-pooled tests, based on historical and other data. Use decimal fraction (say 0.1) instead of % (say 10%).

Bayesian Positive Probability Limited Optimal Sub-Pool Size Calculator
Input
Desired Maximum Sub-pooled Test Positive Probability (<1)
Input the desired maximum probability of positive sub-pooled tests. Use decimal fraction (say 0.5) instead of % (say 50%).
The default value of the desired maximum probability is 0.5, meaning that you want the largest sub-pool size such that about 50% of the sub-pooled tests are expected to be positive.
Un-pooled Test Positive Probability (<1)
Input the probability of positive un-pooled tests, based on historical and other data. Use decimal fraction (say 0.1) instead of % (say 10%).
Current Pool Size
Input the number of samples in the current pool, to be sub-pooled on testing postive.
