Peptide Calculator
Use the Prax Peptides calculator to convert vial strength, reconstitution volume, and desired dose into a precise syringe pull for your research.
Assumes U-100 insulin syringes (100 units = 1 mL).
To have a dose of your selected amount, pull the syringe to:
— units
(≈ — mL on a 1.0 mL syringe)

Peptide Dosage Calculator
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that play a critical role in various biological functions, including hormone regulation, tissue repair, immune modulation, and metabolism. Because these compounds are bioactive, accurate dosing is crucial in any research environment.
A peptide dosage calculator simplifies this process by helping you convert vial strength, reconstitution volume, and desired dose into a precise syringe pull. Instead of doing the math manually, the calculator automatically determines how much solution to draw into the syringe for each injection.
Why Use a Peptide Dosage Calculator?
- Precision: Ensures the correct peptide concentration is used, reducing the risk of overdosing or underdosing.
- Convenience: Eliminates manual calculations and speeds up preparation.
- Safety: Reduces the chance of human error when preparing peptide solutions.
- Consistency: Helps keep every dose uniform from vial to vial.
How the Calculator Works
Behind the scenes, the calculator uses a simple set of formulas:
- Concentration (mg/mL) = Total peptide (mg) ÷ Reconstitution volume (mL).
- 1 mg = 1,000 mcg.
- Volume per dose (mL) = Desired dose (mcg) ÷ (Concentration (mg/mL) × 1,000).
- On a U-100 insulin syringe, 1 mL = 100 units, so syringe units = mL × 100.
By adjusting vial amount, water volume, and dose, researchers can tailor each draw to their specific protocol while maintaining accurate and repeatable dosing.
