How to Reconstitute TB-500
Pre-filled calculator with standard defaults for TB-500: 5 mg vial in 2 ml BAC water.
Standard TB-500 Reconstitution Protocol
Add 2 ml of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial of TB-500. This gives a concentration of 2.50 mg/ml. A 2500 mcg amount measures about 100.0 IU on a U-100 syringe scale. Store refrigerated at 2–8°C and use within 28 days.

TB-500 Reconstitution Chart
Common syringe draws at the standard TB-500 preset (5 mg in 2 mL BAC water = 2.50 mg/mL). Units are on a U-100 syringe scale (100 units = 1 mL). For laboratory research reference only.
| Syringe units (U-100) | Volume | Amount (TB-500) |
|---|---|---|
| 5 units | 0.05 mL | 125 mcg |
| 10 units | 0.10 mL | 250 mcg |
| 15 units | 0.15 mL | 375 mcg |
| 20 units | 0.20 mL | 500 mcg |
| 25 units | 0.25 mL | 625 mcg |
| 30 units | 0.30 mL | 750 mcg |
| 40 units | 0.40 mL | 1.00 mg |
| 50 units | 0.50 mL | 1.25 mg |

Step-by-Step: How to Reconstitute TB-500
-
1
Gather your supplies
A sealed 5 mg vial of TB-500, a vial of bacteriostatic water, a 1 ml U-100 syringe, and an alcohol swab.
-
2
Add the water
Wipe both vial stoppers with alcohol. Draw 2 ml of BAC water into the syringe and release it slowly down the inside wall of the TB-500 vial. Never spray directly onto the powder — the force can damage the peptide.
-
3
Swirl gently
Gently swirl the vial in a circular motion until the TB-500 fully dissolves. Do not shake. The solution should become clear.
-
4
Calculate the amount
At a concentration of 2.50 mg/ml, a 2500 mcg (2.500 mg) amount equals about 100.0 IU on a U-100 syringe scale.
-
5
Draw and store
Draw the amount you need, then immediately return the vial to the refrigerator at 2–8°C. Use the reconstituted vial within 28 days.
