MOTS-c peptide calculator
Pre-filled MOTS-c dosage and reconstitution math: a 10 mg vial, 2 ml of bacteriostatic water, and the resulting U-100 insulin-syringe units. Adjust the inputs below or open the full calculator.
How to reconstitute MOTS-c
- Wipe both vial stoppers with a fresh alcohol swab and let them dry.
- Draw 2 ml of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
- Insert the needle at an angle into the MOTS-c vial and let the water run slowly down the inner wall — do not inject directly onto the powder.
- Do not shake. Gently swirl the vial until the peptide fully dissolves.
- Store the reconstituted vial refrigerated (2–8 °C / 36–46 °F) and use within roughly 28 days.
- Draw each dose to the unit mark shown above for your target 10000 mcg dose.
About MOTS-c
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA. It is studied for its role in metabolic regulation, insulin sensitivity, and exercise-like cellular effects.
Half-life: Short (minutes systemically); downstream effects persist longer
Typical dose range: 5–10 mg per injection, 2–3x weekly
Class: Mitochondrial-derived peptide (16 amino acids)
MOTS-c calculator FAQ
Is this a MOTS-c peptide calculator or a reconstitution calculator?
Both. This MOTS-c calculator converts vial strength, bacteriostatic-water volume, and target dose into milliliters and insulin-syringe units. It does not recommend a medical dose.
How much bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg MOTS-c vial?
This page is pre-filled with 2 ml of bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg MOTS-c vial because that is a common research ratio. You can adjust the water amount in the full calculator.
How many units is a 10000 mcg MOTS-c dose?
With the default 10 mg vial and 2 ml BAC-water ratio, the preview above calculates the U-100 syringe units for a 10000 mcg dose. Change the dose if your protocol uses a different amount.
Does this MOTS-c dosage calculator give medical advice?
No. It only performs unit math. Dosing, titration, and whether MOTS-c is appropriate are clinical decisions that should be made with a licensed healthcare professional.
