From powder to ready,
step by step.
Every peptide ships freeze-dried. Here is a calm, step-by-step guide to mixing with bacteriostatic water for laboratory research.
Everything included
Vials, water, syringe and wipes — the four essentials in this guide.

What you'll need
It all comes in the box.
Bacteriostatic water
A 3 ml or 10 ml vial, for mixing the powder.
Insulin syringe
31G · 0.5 ml, with fine markings for measuring.
Alcohol wipes
To clean the vial tops before you start.
Check your order contains the materials required by your research protocol before you start.
The steps
Five calm minutes.
Clean up
Wash your hands. Wipe the rubber top of both vials with an alcohol pad and let them dry.

Draw the water
Pull your planned amount of bacteriostatic water into the syringe. Use the calculator below to check the concentration for your chosen water volume.
- 03
Add it gently
Push the needle through the peptide vial's top and let the water run slowly down the inside of the glass — never jet it straight onto the powder.
- 04
Let it dissolve
Swirl the vial softly or roll it between your palms. Never shake. Wait until the liquid is completely clear.
- 05
Store it cold
Keep the mixed vial upright in the fridge at 2–8°C, away from light.

Know your strength
Use the mixing calculator below, or the free LYO LAB app, to get the exact concentration.

Dilution math only — it sets no dose and is not medical advice. On any U-100 syringe, 100 units = 1 ml. Make sure the volume fits inside your syringe barrel.
Golden rules
Treat it gently.
Do
- Swirl gently until the liquid is clear
- Wipe every vial top before the needle goes in
- Keep it cold, 2–8°C, and upright
- Keep it out of direct light

- Jetting water straight onto the powder
Storage
Cold, dark, upright.
Before mixing
Keep the sealed freeze-dried powder cool and out of light until you're ready. Follow the storage instructions for your batch.
After mixing
Keep the mixed vial in the fridge at 2–8°C, upright, away from light. The app's Vials tab tracks how much is left.
Questions
Good to know.
Use the volume specified in your research protocol. The mixing calculator above turns vial size and water volume into mg/ml and U-100 units; it does not recommend an amount.
