MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in mitochondrial DNA. This calculator is preset for our 10 and 40 mg vials. Enter how much diluent you added and the amount you want to measure out, and it returns the concentration and the volume to transfer, clearly.
Example values only. Replace them with your own. 1 mg = 1,000 mcg.
Pick a round concentration and the calculator returns the diluent volume that gives it.
Share of the vial volume used by one transfer.
Sends this volume to the first tab so you can work out a transfer volume.

MOTS-c concentration by vial and diluent.
The concentration you get from each of our MOTS-c vial sizes at common diluent volumes.
| Vial | 1 mL | 2 mL | 3 mL | 5 mL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mg | 10 mg/mL 10,000 mcg/mL | 5 mg/mL 5,000 mcg/mL | 3.3333 mg/mL 3,333.3 mcg/mL | 2 mg/mL 2,000 mcg/mL |
| 40 mg | 40 mg/mL 40,000 mcg/mL | 20 mg/mL 20,000 mcg/mL | 13.3333 mg/mL 13,333.3 mcg/mL | 8 mg/mL 8,000 mcg/mL |
Worked example. A 10 mg MOTS-c vial with 2 mL of diluent holds 5 mg/mL, or 5,000 mcg/mL. To measure out 100 mcg: 100 mcg ÷ 5,000 mcg/mL = 0.02 mL, which is 20 µL. These are arithmetic examples, not suggested amounts.
MOTS-c by mass and by moles.
MOTS-c has a molecular weight of about 2,174.6 g/mol, so 1 mg holds roughly 459.9 nmol. For molar work, multiply any mg/mL figure above by 459.9 to get nmol/mL. Since 1 nmol/mL equals 1 µM, that figure is also the molar concentration in µM.
For laboratory research use only. This calculator performs unit and concentration arithmetic for laboratory work. It does not provide, and should not be used for, amounts for human or animal use. Always confirm calculations independently.
Questions.
How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a 10 mg MOTS-c vial?
There is no single right volume. With 2 mL, a 10 mg vial holds 5 mg/mL; with 3 mL it holds 3.3333 mg/mL. Choose the volume that gives transfer volumes you can measure accurately, and that the vial can hold.
How many mcg are in a 10 mg MOTS-c vial?
10,000 mcg. One milligram is 1,000 micrograms.
What is the molecular weight of MOTS-c?
About 2,174.6 g/mol, so 1 mg of MOTS-c is roughly 459.9 nmol.
Does this calculator tell me how much MOTS-c to use?
No. It does unit and concentration arithmetic for laboratory work only. It does not suggest amounts or any form of human or animal use, and our MOTS-c is sold for laboratory research only.
