The six conversions you encounter most often when working with peptides. Every one reduces to a single multiply or divide.
mg → mcg
× 1,000
0.25 mg = 250 mcg
mcg → mg
÷ 1,000
500 mcg = 0.5 mg
ml → units
× 100
0.1 ml = 10 units
units → ml
÷ 100
25 units = 0.25 ml
mg → IU
× 3
1 mg ≈ 3 IU
IU → mg
÷ 3
6 IU ≈ 2 mg
All three sizes use the same standard: 1 unit = 0.01 ml. The math never changes. Only the maximum capacity differs.
| Syringe | Capacity | Max units | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 ml | 0.3 ml | 30 | Small doses under 30 units. Finest markings. |
| 0.5 ml | 0.5 ml | 50 | Moderate doses between 30-50 units. |
| 1.0 ml | 1.0 ml | 100 | Large doses or loading protocols up to 100 units. |
Peptide doses are prescribed in weight (mg or mcg), but you measure them in syringe units. The bridge between the two is concentration, expressed as mg/ml.
Concentration is set during reconstitution: divide the total peptide in the vial by the volume of water you added. A 5 mg vial with 2 ml of BAC water gives you 2.5 mg/ml.
Once you know the concentration, every conversion is the same two steps. To go from dose to units: divide the dose (mg) by the concentration (mg/ml) to get ml, then multiply by 100 for units. To reverse it, divide units by 100 to get ml, then multiply by the concentration.
Forward: units = (dose_mg ÷ concentration) × 100
Reverse: dose_mg = (units ÷ 100) × concentration
Example: 250 mcg at 2.5 mg/ml → (0.25 ÷ 2.5) × 100 = 10 units
Units, mass, volume, and how they relate.
