T-GLP2 (Tirzepatide) 10/30/60/100 mg Vials: Stock Concentration Math (In Vitro)

By: Mindful Research Team2 min read

Key takeaways

  • Stock concentration = vial mass / solvent volume (C = m/V).
  • 10 mg in 1 mL = 10 mg/mL; 30 mg in 3 mL = 10 mg/mL.
  • mg/mL to molarity: divide g/L by MW ~4813 g/mol (10 mg/mL ~= 2.08 mM).
  • Tirzepatide is a large peptide, so mg/mL maps to a low molarity.
  • For in vitro research use only.

Reconstituting a T-GLP2 (tirzepatide) vial to a known mg/mL stock is a mass-over-volume calculation, C = m / V: for example 10 mg in 1 mL gives 10 mg/mL, and 30 mg in 3 mL gives 10 mg/mL.

How do you calculate a T-GLP2 stock concentration?

Divide the vial mass by the solvent volume added. T-GLP2 is offered in 10, 30, 60 and 100 mg vials; the table pairs each with common volumes. The arithmetic is identical for any peptide and is walked through in the peptide concentration and reconstitution math guide.

Vial Solvent volume Concentration (mg/mL) Approx. molarity
10 mg 1 mL 10 mg/mL ~2.08 mM
10 mg 2 mL 5 mg/mL ~1.04 mM
30 mg 2 mL 15 mg/mL ~3.12 mM
30 mg 3 mL 10 mg/mL ~2.08 mM
60 mg 3 mL 20 mg/mL ~4.15 mM
100 mg 5 mL 20 mg/mL ~4.15 mM
100 mg 2 mL 50 mg/mL ~10.39 mM

How do you convert mg/mL to molarity?

Molarity equals the concentration in g/L divided by the molecular weight in g/mol. Tirzepatide’s molecular weight is ~4813 g/mol, so a 10 mg/mL stock is 10 g/L ÷ 4813 g/mol ≈ 2.08 mM. Because tirzepatide is a large peptide, a given mg/mL translates to a relatively low molarity compared with small molecules — useful to keep in mind when matching assay concentrations across compounds and when preparing serial dilutions and working solutions.

What solvent and handling suit T-GLP2?

Tirzepatide ships as a white lyophilized powder and is reconstituted for in vitro use in an aqueous-compatible reconstitution solution; keep the vial cold and sealed until use and aliquot the stock to limit freeze-thaw cycles. Match the vial size to your target working concentration on the T-GLP2 listing.
