Conversion reference

Mass-mass, mass-mole and mass-IU relationships. Verify each peptide's molecular weight from the COA before using.

General formulas

From → ToFormula
µg ↔ mg1 mg = 1000 µg  ·  1 µg = 0.001 mg
mg → nmolnmol = (mg / MW) × 106
nmol → mgmg = (nmol × MW) / 106
mg → IUIU = mg × (IU/mg potency from COA)
IU → mgmg = IU / (IU/mg potency from COA)
Conc. (mg/mL)(vial mg) / (BAC water mL)
Vol for X mgvolume mL = X mg / (mg/mL stock)

Always cross-check MW against the per-batch COA — salt forms (acetate / TFA) shift mass.
