- Label Calculation (Mass ÷ Volume)
- None. Uses vial label data
- ±10–20%
- <1 minute
- Initial rough estimate only
- Assumes 100% purity and ignores excipients. Systematically overestimates
- CoA-Corrected Calculation (Net Mass ÷ Volume)
- Certificate of Analysis + calibrated syringe
- ±5–8%
- 5 minutes
- Standard for most research protocols
- Accuracy depends on CoA reliability and volumetric measurement
- Gravimetric Method (Mass Difference ÷ Water Density)
- Analytical balance (±0.1mg resolution)
- ±2–3%
- 10 minutes
- High-precision dosing or pharmacokinetic studies
- Requires balance calibration and controlled humidity
- UV Spectrophotometry at 280nm
- UV-Vis spectrophotometer + extinction coefficient
- ±1–2%
- 15 minutes + calibration
- Verification of calculated concentration before critical experiments
- Only accurate for peptides with tryptophan or tyrosine residues
