Peptide Guide Information

Peptides come in the form of lyophilized (freeze dried) powder. The amount of powder/product is stated in International Units (IU's) or in Milligrams (MG).

Melanotan peptides (Melanotan 1 & Melanotan 2), PT-141 Bremelanotide, GH Fragment, Ipamorelin, CJC-1295 & GHRPs (GRHP-2 & GHRP-6), HGH, HCG, et cetera use Bacteriostatic Water (BW). Bacteriostatic Water for injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic preparation of water for injection containing 0.9% of benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is supplied in a multiple-dose container from which repeated withdrawals may be made to dilute or dissolve drugs for injection. The pH is 5.7 (4.5 to 7.0)

bacteriostatic water


For IGF use an acetic acid solution (.6%) which is 7 parts distilled water and 1 part vinegar to reconstitute. You must filter the distilled water and white wine vinegar through a sterile 20 micron syringe filter before use. Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is used to buffer the injection.

 1.) Take an alcohol swab to the stopper of both your peptide vial and the vial of the diluent.

 2.) Draw your preferred diluent (BW) with a 1cc syringe. Choose an amount that will make measuring the final product simple.

 1ml(cc) per 10 mg vial of Melanotan would mean each 10 tick marks on a U100 slin syringe would equal 1mg of Melanotan
 1ml(cc) per 10 IU vial of HGH would mean each 10 tick marks on a U100 slin syringe would equal 1 IU of HGH

 3.) Take the syringe with the dilutent and push it into the vial of lyophilized powder letting the dilutent dissolve the peptide. Many (not all) peptides are sealed with vacuum pressure, be careful.

 4.) After dilutent has been added to the vial, gentling swirl the vial until the lyophilized powder has dissolved and you are left with a clear liquid. The peptide is now reconstructed, ready for measurement and usage.

5.) Store your now reconstituted research peptides in the refrigerator.

Peptide Measurement

After successfully reconstituting your peptide, measure the desired amount out for injection. Use a U100 insulin syringe to draw out and inject your product.

 Since you know the amount of IU's/MG's in your vial, we divide this out as follows:
You will need to know the following to be successful: 1ml = 1cc = 100 IU's

 We take our dose from the label of the dry lyophilized powder and we divide that into the amount of diluent used.

 Example- We used 1cc(ml) of bacteriostatic water  We have a 10 IU vial of HGH.
 From our formula above we know that 1cc = 100 IU's, so we have 100 IU's of water.
 We now divide the 100 IU's (the amount of our water) by 10 IU's (the amount of our HGH)
 100 IU / 10 IU = 10

 This 10 will perfectly correspond with the markings on a U100 insulin syringe. In our example every 10 mark on our syringe will equal 1 IU of HGH. Want to draw out 2 IU's of GH? ....draw out to the 20 mark on the syringe (1/5th of the syringe).

Say you have a 1mg vial and you add 1ML you get
 1000mcg/1mL: 10 mcg per IU
 1000mcg/2mL: 5 mcg per IU

Say you have a 10mg vial and you add 1ML you get
 10mg/1mL: 1 mg per 10 IU
 10mg/2mL: .5 mg per 10 IU

Say you have a 20mg vial and you add 1ML you get
 20mg/1mL: 2 mg per 10 IU
 20mg/2mL: 1 mg per 10 IU

Say you have a 10iu vial and you add 1ML you get
 10iu/1mL: 1 iu per 10 IU (on the syringe - 1/10th the product)
 10iu/2mL: 1 iu per 20 IU (on the syringe - still 1/10th the product)
Say you have a 5000iu vial and you add 1ML you get
 5000iu/1mL: 500iu per 10 IU
 5000iu/2mL: 250iu per 10 IU

CJC-1295 DAC

CJC-1295 DAC

Sequence: Tyr-DAla-Asp-Ala-Ile-Phe-Thr-Gln-Ser-Tyr-Arg-Lys-Val-Leu-Ala-Gln-Leu-Ser-Ala-Arg-Lys-Leu-Leu-Gln-Asp-Ile-Leu-Ser-Arg-Lys-(Maleimidopropionyl)-NH2
Purity: >99.5%

Description:  CJC-1295 DAC is a long-acting version of GHRH (Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone) which has had its half-life extended to 8 days. This is convenient as it means the product only needs to be injected once or twice per week for continuously elevated levels of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) and IGF-1. The advantage of using CJC-1295 DAC instead of actual HGH injections is that injecting HGH shuts down the body's own natural production and therefore when injections are ceased, the body’s ability to produce its own Growth Hormone may be impaired and take some time to recover. Since CJC-1295 DAC only stimulates the body's own GH production, this risk is not apparent.

Useful For: Bodybuilders looking to gain muscle; ordinary people looking to lose fat; older persons looking for anti-aging benefits.

CJC-1295 Storage: Vials are freeze-dried and therefore will remain stable at room temperature for 1-2 months. However, for long term storage they should be kept a 2-8 degrees celcius (refrigerator temperature), where they will remain stable for up to 18 months in powder form.
Once mixed with mixing solution, vials should be stored in the refrigerator and not left at room temperature.

NOTE: Do not mix up all your vials at once. You should only mix up 1 (one) vial at a time and leave the rest in powder form until you are ready to use the next vial.

Amount of Water to Mix: You can mix 1ml (1cc or 100 units), 2ml (2cc or 200 units), or 3ml (3cc or 300 units) of sterile water, sterile saline (0.09nacl) or bacteriostatic water. The amount of water you mix makes no difference to the products effectiveness. The only thing that will change with the differing amounts of water is the amount you have to inject to get a certain dosage. For ease of dosing, we recommend mixing 1ml of water per vial (unless you have difficulty dissolving the peptide). Note: If the product does not dissolve into 1ml of water within a few minutes, do not shake the vial, but instead try adding another 1ml or 2ml of water and leaving the vial to settle for 24 hours in the refrigerator.

CJC-1295 DAC Dosage:   Taken 1 or 2 times per week (once a week for anti-aging and 2 times per week for fat loss and/or muscle building). Males & Females = 1mg (0.50ml or “50” units on the Insulin Syringe if you have used 1ml for mixing, 1ml or “100” units if you have used 2ml of water for mixing and 1.5ml or “150” units if you have used 3ml of water for mixing).

Number of Dosages per vial: 2 x 1mg (1000mcg) dosages.

When to Take: Due to the long half-life, CJC-1295 DAC does not need to be taken on an empty stomach like other GH-Releasing peptides and it can be injected any time of day. If an optimal injection time had to be picked, it would be in the evening before bed.

How to Take: By subcutaneous injection into fat (stomach, thigh or buttock) or intramuscularly (bicep or shoulder) with an insulin syringe. Other peptides can be mixed in the same syringe and injected at the same time.

Possible Benefits: Fat loss, muscle gain, increased strength, improved skin tone, better sleep, more energy, stronger bones and connective tissues.

Possible Side Effects: Tiredness, water retention, tingling in hands and feet, temporary irritation (redness and/or lumps) at the injection site.

Best Combined With: GHRP-6, GHRP-2 or Ipamorelin.
