Reconstitution Calculator

Enter the mass in your vial and your desired concentration, and the Reconstitution Calculator tells you exactly how much solvent to add — plus your final solution volume and concentration per ml so you know precisely what you're working with.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much bacteriostatic water should I add to peptides?

The amount of bacteriostatic water depends on the peptide mass and your desired concentration. Use our calculator to determine the exact volume needed for accurate reconstitution.

What is the difference between mg/ml and μg/ml concentrations?

mg/ml (milligrams per milliliter) is 1000 times stronger than μg/ml (micrograms per milliliter). Choose the appropriate unit based on your peptide strength and dosing requirements.

How do I calculate peptide dosage after reconstitution?

After reconstitution, divide your desired dose by the final concentration to determine the volume to draw. For example, if you want 0.5mg from a 1mg/ml solution, draw 0.5ml.

Can I use this calculator for any type of drug reconstitution?

Yes, this calculator works for peptides, proteins, antibodies, and other lyophilized substances that need reconstitution. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for specific products.

How long do reconstituted peptides last?

Reconstituted peptides typically last 2-4 weeks when stored properly in the refrigerator. Some peptides may remain stable for longer periods when frozen.

What happens if I add too much or too little solvent?

Adding too much solvent creates a weaker concentration, while too little creates a stronger one. Use precise measurements and our calculator to achieve the exact concentration needed.

Should I account for the powder volume when calculating?

For most peptides, the powder volume is negligible compared to the solvent volume. However, for large molecules or significant amounts, you may need to account for displacement volume.
