MOTS-c Reconstitution Calculator
Use this free MOTS-c reconstitution calculator to work out your solution strength, translate your chosen dosage into U-100 insulin syringe units (100 units = 1 mL), and read off the exact draw for the BAC water and vial size you’re using—whether you’re planning in mcg or mg. Built around U-100 markings so the numbers match what you see on the barrel.

How to Use the MOTS-c Calculator
Use this MOTS-c calculator to find concentration after reconstitution (as mg/mL or mcg/mL) and convert your target dosage in mg or mcg into the correct U-100 insulin syringe units and mL to draw.
Step 1: Choose Your Syringe Size
Pick the U-100 insulin syringe size you have. On U-100, 100 units = 1.0 mL (so each unit is 0.01 mL).
Step 2: Select the Vial Amount
Choose the MOTS-c amount in the vial in milligrams (mg)—for example 5 mg or 10 mg—or use Other for a custom mg value.
Step 3: Enter Water Added
Enter how much bacteriostatic water you added, in milliliters (mL). That volume sets your final mg/mL (and therefore mcg/mL) concentration.
Step 4: Choose Your Dose
Select your desired amount per draw in mg or mcg. The calculator reports concentration, mcg per U-100 unit, and the exact draw in units and mL.
Tip: Using less bacteriostatic water (fewer mL) raises concentration (more mg per mL), so the same mg or mcg dose requires fewer syringe units—and more water does the opposite.
What is MOTS-c?
MOTS-c (mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c) is a short, mitochondria-derived signaling peptide. Unlike incretin-class compounds such as semaglutide, it is discussed as part of cellular energy and mitochondrial communication research rather than GLP-1 receptor activity.
MOTS-c is commonly associated with topics such as metabolic regulation, exercise physiology, insulin sensitivity research, and cellular energy pathways. That framing is why it often appears in metabolic peptide discussions even though its proposed mechanism is distinct from GIP/GLP-1 agonists.
Like many research peptides, MOTS-c is commonly supplied as a lyophilized powder and is typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water so the solution can be drawn and measured consistently with an insulin syringe.
After mixing, people often need to translate a planned MOTS-c dosage in mg or mcg into the matching number of U-100 insulin syringe units (where 100 units = 1.0 mL). That math depends on:
- The labeled peptide mass in the vial (for example, 5 mg or 10 mg)
- How much bacteriostatic water you add
- The amount you intend to draw for each injection
The MOTS-c dosage calculator on this page handles those unit conversions for you—showing concentration, how much active ingredient each “unit” represents on a U-100 scale, and the precise draw in units and mL.

How to Use the MOTS-c Calculator
Use this MOTS-c calculator to find your post-reconstitution concentration and turn your planned dosage (mg or mcg) into the exact U-100 insulin syringe units and milliliters to pull.
Step 1: Choose Your Syringe Size
Pick the U-100 insulin syringe you’re using. On U-100 barrels, 100 units = 1.0 mL, so “units” and volume stay locked together.
Step 2: Select the Vial Amount
Enter the MOTS-c mass on the label (commonly 5 mg or 10 mg), or use Other if your vial size differs.
Step 3: Enter Water Added
Input how much bacteriostatic water you added. That volume sets your final mg/mL (or mcg/mL) concentration.
Step 4: Choose Your Dose
Set your target amount in mg or mcg. The tool updates concentration, mass per insulin “unit,” and the precise draw in units and mL.
Tip: Less bacteriostatic water means a stronger mixture—so the same mass dose shows up as a shorter draw (fewer units). More water does the opposite, which can make very small microgram targets easier to read on U-100 markings.
