Summary

What reconstitution volumes are people actually using for 50 mg SS-31 and 20 mg MOTS-c vials?

Users report trying 2–3 ml BAC or 2 ml 0.9% NaCl in the SS-31 vial and 2 ml in the MOTS-c vial. One person switched to saline to reduce injection-site reactions and lumps, splitting doses into smaller volumes with a pen. Another prefers 2.5 ml in the SS-31 for easier math and has seen no stinging. Several posts confirm the original suggested volumes work without problems.

Whether stinging occurs with these peptides or is tied to the choice of diluent.

Nothing here is advice.

I got a 50 mg vial of SS-31 and the recommendation seems to be 3 ml for reconstitution. For the 20 mg Mots-C vial it's 2 ml. Anyone with experience using these can confirm if those amounts work okay?

I already know where to look up the doses. What I wanted to know is what actual users are doing with these.

I'd say the majority of them go with those amounts.

Thanks. I wanted to double check because I was worried there might not be enough BAC and it could sting.

The amounts suggested look okay to me. For my own use I put 2.5 ml of BAC water in the 50 mg SS-31 because it simplifies the calculations, and 2 ml in the 20 mg MOTS-C. Haven't had any problems with either the mixing or stinging, though I'm not sure if stinging even occurs with these.

I prepare ten portions of five milligrams each out of a fifty milligram container for that compound. This way the injector device works for ten days. Recently I changed over to two milliliters of saline solution without any preservative. This results in tiny injection amounts around zero point two milliliters. That stopped the skin irritation issues. I haven't resumed the other peptide yet. The previous round left a large firm swelling in my leg, so I altered my approach. Avoiding low-salt preservative solutions now, using normal saline instead. The container gets used up quickly enough that contamination isn't a concern. Switching to an injector device fitted with a fine short needle. Avoiding larger needles and angled shallow insertions. Also stopping leg injections altogether. Lowering the amount per dose to two point five milligrams. My forty milligram containers provide sixteen portions. Splitting those across a pair of refill units, each holding eight portions of zero point three milliliters, using two point four milliliters of saline per unit. The low salt level causes issues with shots. The second compound might trigger sensitivity, so I'm trying to lessen that by using more liquid and salt to stop clumping. The salt also adjusts acidity toward neutral. I'm having fun with all this experimentation. It reminds me of my younger days experimenting with immune proteins and lab techniques, though I'd skip the radioactive part now.

Thanks a lot, this is really helpful.

Radioactive iodine? Mon dieu!

Double layers of hand coverings, the lab ventilation enclosure rather than anything for my head, and a device to measure radiation made it feasible. The peculiar experience was anticipating the snapshot from my experiments while the clinic processed a couple of breast scans in between.

At twenty those test names and methods have no place in the wording and that verb choice for the action feels off too. Hoping everything worked out fine.

Passion along with enjoyment seem necessary when tackling unpaid investigative projects, since without them the whole thing could push someone over the edge. My inquiry into cancer yielded no results. Up to this point everything appears fine.
