PE-22-28 Reconstitution Calculator

A synthetic peptide analog of spadin referenced in mood and neuroplasticity research. This page works out concentration, volume per measured amount, syringe units and preparations per vial for a reconstituted PE-22-28 preparation, plus the mass-to-molar conversions for its stated molecular weight.

The pre-filled example, step by step

The inputs above are the neutral reference preparation this site uses everywhere the calculator appears: a 5 mg vial, 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, and a 250 mcg target amount. They are not a property of PE-22-28 and not an amount anyone should draw — they exist so the arithmetic is visible before you change anything.

  1. Concentration. 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.5 mg/mL (2,500 mcg/mL), which for PE-22-28 is approximately 3.23 mM at its stated molecular weight.
  2. Per syringe unit. A U-100 syringe divides 1 mL into 100 units, so one unit holds 2,500 mcg ÷ 100 = 25 mcg.
  3. Volume for the 250 mcg target. 250 mcg ÷ 2,500 mcg/mL = 0.1 mL, or 10 units on that syringe.
  4. Preparations per vial. 5,000 mcg ÷ 250 mcg = 20 preparations.

Mass and molar equivalents for PE-22-28

Derived from the molecular weight recorded on the PE-22-28 entry: 773.9 g/mol. Concentration in molar units is what an in-vitro protocol is usually specified in.

Mass to molar conversions for PE-22-28 at its stated molecular weight.
QuantityMolar equivalent
1 mg of PE-22-281,292 nmol (1.292 µmol)
1 mcg of PE-22-281.292 nmol
A 1 mg/mL solution1.292 mM (1,292 µM)

Molar amount = mass ÷ molecular weight. Figures are shown to four significant digits and are a unit conversion, not a measurement.

Handling questions for PE-22-28

How does PE-22-28 relate to spadin?

Spadin is a fragment derived from the propeptide of the sorting receptor sortilin, and PE-22-28 is a shortened, optimized fragment of it. Research describes PE-22-28 as among the smallest spadin fragments that retains TREK-1 inhibitory activity, with improved stability over the parent peptide.
