The math
Concentration = vial ÷ water · Units = (dose ÷ concentration) × 100
MOTS-c is a lyophilized peptide; the reconstitution math is the same as any single-peptide vial.

Frequently asked questions
How do I reconstitute MOTS-c?
Add bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized vial to reach a concentration you can measure. For example, 10 mg in 2 mL of water gives 5 mg/mL, so each 10 units (0.1 mL) on a U-100 syringe contains about 500 mcg of MOTS-c. Swirl gently rather than shaking.
How many units of MOTS-c do I draw?
Divide your intended dose by the concentration to get the volume in mL, then multiply by 100 for a U-100 syringe. The calculator does this automatically once you enter your vial size, water volume and dose.
What vial sizes does MOTS-c come in?
MOTS-c is commonly supplied as 10 mg. The amount in the vial does not change with how much water you add — water only sets the concentration.
Is MOTS-c approved for human use?
Not approved for human use; sold as a research compound. This calculator only performs arithmetic on the numbers you enter and does not recommend any dose.
