- The table below compares reconstitution calculations for three different bacteriostatic water volumes added to the same 5mg LL-37 vial (98% purity, 10% overfill = 5,390mcg actual peptide content). Target dose is 200mcg. Each row shows how dilution volume affects concentration and injection volume. Lower dilution volumes produce higher concentrations and smaller (harder to measure) injection volumes.
- 1.0mL
- 5,390mcg/mL
- 0.037mL
- Difficult. Below 0.05mL accurate measurement threshold on standard insulin syringes
- Use only with low-dead-space precision syringes; high risk of measurement error
- 2.0mL
- 2,695mcg/mL
- 0.074mL
- Good. Within optimal 0.05–0.15mL range for 0.3mL insulin syringes
- Recommended dilution for 100–300mcg dose range; balances precision and convenience
- 3.0mL
- 1,797mcg/mL
- 0.111mL
- Good. Well within measurable range but uses vial volume faster
- Suitable for longer protocols or researchers preferring larger injection volumes
