Peptide Calculator
Pick a compound from the Enhanced Republic catalog, choose your format (vial or cartridge) and enter your protocol dose. The calculator returns concentration, syringe units, and clicks live.
USING THE CALCULATOR
This calculator helps you plan reconstitution and dosing for Enhanced Republic research compounds. Select your compound, choose format (vial or cartridge), and enter your target research protocol parameters to see per-dose volumes, syringe unit conversions, cartridge click counts, and approximate product duration.
Every calculation reflects the actual product specifications for our research catalog. For product-specific pages with detailed research notes, see our catalog.
METHODOLOGY
HOW RECONSTITUTION WORKS
Research peptides ship as lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Before use in research applications, they are reconstituted with bacteriostatic water (BAC water), a sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol that inhibits bacterial growth.
The ratio of powder mass to reconstitution volume determines the final concentration in mg/ml. This concentration then determines how much liquid volume delivers a target research dose.
Example: a 10mg vial reconstituted with 2.0ml of BAC water produces a 5.0 mg/ml concentration. A 2mg target dose requires 0.4ml of the reconstituted solution, which corresponds to 40 units on a U-100 insulin syringe.
The calculator handles this math automatically once you enter your compound, format, reconstitution volume (for vials), and target dose parameters. For cartridge format, the reconstitution volume is fixed at 3ml per cartridge and per-click delivery in micrograms is calculated directly from cartridge compound mass.

CALCULATIONS EXPLAINED
Every value in the calculator is derived from these formulas. The math is public so you can verify any output against your own understanding.
FOR VIAL FORMAT
- Concentration (mg/ml) = Compound mass (mg) ÷ BAC water volume (ml)
- Dose volume (ml) = Target dose ÷ Concentration
- U-100 syringe units = Dose volume (ml) × 100
- U-40 syringe units = Dose volume (ml) × 40
- Doses per vial = Compound mass ÷ Target dose
- Vial duration (weeks) = Doses per vial ÷ Doses per week
FOR CARTRIDGE FORMAT
- Concentration (mg/ml) = Compound mass (mg) ÷ 3ml
- Micrograms per click = (Compound mass × 1000) ÷ 300 clicks
- Clicks per dose = Target dose ÷ Micrograms per click
- Cartridge duration (weeks) = 300 clicks ÷ (Clicks per dose × Doses per week)
Cartridges always contain 3ml and deliver 300 clicks per cartridge when used with the GensuPen 2 pen system. Each click delivers 1 IU on the U-100 scale, which translates to a compound-specific microgram value based on the cartridge's compound concentration.
