Enter your vial strength, BAC water volume, and the amount to draw. This educational tool performs the reconstitution math and converts it into insulin syringe units.

The math

Concentration = vial strength ÷ BAC water. Draw volume = entered amount ÷ concentration. Syringe units = draw volume × 100. This is a research-use calculation only.

How to use

Four steps

Enter your vial strength — the total mass of peptide in the vial (mg or mcg).

Enter the BAC water volume you are adding as diluent (mL).

Enter the amount you want to draw (mcg or mg).

Review the calculated draw volume and insulin syringe units, and confirm they fit your selected syringe.

Educational notes

Understanding the units

mg (milligram) — a unit of mass. 1 mg = 1,000 mcg. Vial strength is often labeled in mg.

mcg (microgram) — a smaller unit of mass. 1,000 mcg = 1 mg. The amount to draw is often described in mcg.

mL (milliliter) — a unit of volume. It measures how much liquid you draw, which depends on the concentration after reconstitution.

Insulin syringe units — the tick marks on an insulin syringe. On a U-100 syringe, 100 units = 1.0 mL, so each unit = 0.01 mL. Converting a draw volume into units tells you which tick mark to pull to.

Why units matter: an insulin syringe is marked in units, not mL, so converting the calculated volume into syringe units makes the entered amount easier to read on the barrel. This is a research-use calculation only.
