MOTS-c calculator FAQ

How do I use the MOTS-c calculator?+

Confirm your vial size in mg (default 10), set the diluent volume in mL (default 2), enter your target dose, and the calculator returns the concentration, the exact insulin-syringe units to draw, and how many doses your vial yields.

What's the standard MOTS-c reconstitution?+

Most MOTS-c research protocols reconstitute a 10 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, yielding 5000 mcg/mL.

What syringe should I use for MOTS-c?+

U-100 insulin syringes are standard for MOTS-c subcutaneous administration. 0.5 mL barrels have clearer unit markings for typical research doses.

Does the MOTS-c calculator support mg and IU?+

Yes. Enter your dose in mcg, mg, or IU. For IU, set the mcg-per-IU ratio (333 for HGH is a common default).
