Getting Started with Peptides
A beginner's guide to research preparation. Everything you need to know before you start.
Educational reference only. Not medical advice. Consult a licensed physician before any clinical application.
What is a peptide?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids β the same building blocks that make up proteins. Your body naturally produces hundreds of peptides that act as signaling molecules, telling cells what to do. As we age, many of these naturally decline. Peptide research explores whether supplementing specific peptides can restore or optimize these signals for healing, performance, longevity, and cognitive function.
Most research peptides come as a white powder in a sealed vial. Before they can be used they need to be reconstituted β mixed with bacteriostatic water to create a solution. This guide walks you through everything you need to do that correctly.
Research preparation supplies
The following supplies are referenced for research and clinical preparation. Links are provided for convenience β always verify quality and source independently.
π§
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) β 30mL
The only solution you should use to reconstitute peptides. Bacteriostatic water contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol which prevents bacterial growth, keeping your reconstituted peptide stable and safe for up to 28β30 days when refrigerated. Never use tap water, distilled water, or saline β only BAC water.
The standard syringe for subcutaneous peptide injections. The U-100 marking means 100 units = 1 mL, which matches the reconstitution calculator in this app. 29 gauge means the needle is very thin β most people find it nearly painless. Use a new syringe every single injection, no exceptions.
Used to sterilize the rubber tops of your vials before inserting a needle, and to clean the injection site on your skin. Wipe and let dry for 10β15 seconds before proceeding β injecting through wet alcohol can cause stinging and irritation. Keep a pack with your peptides at all times.
π‘ Storage tip: Keep your peptide vials (before and after reconstitution) in the refrigerator at 2β8Β°C. Keep them away from light. Do not freeze reconstituted peptides. Most reconstituted peptides are stable for 28β30 days refrigerated.
Step-by-step reconstitution guide
Follow these steps every time you reconstitute a new vial. Do this in a clean space and wash your hands first.
1Gather your supplies
You need: your peptide vial, BAC water vial, a fresh insulin syringe, and alcohol prep wipes. Lay them on a clean surface. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching anything.
β Check your peptide vial β the powder should be white or off-white. If it looks discolored or smells unusual, do not use it.
2Calculate how much BAC water to add
Go to the Reconstitution tab in this app. Enter your peptide amount in mg, the amount of BAC water you plan to add, and your desired dose in mcg. The calculator will tell you exactly how many units to draw up per dose. A common starting point is adding 2 mL of BAC water to a 5 mg vial β this gives you a concentration of 2,500 mcg per mL.
β Write down your concentration on a small label and stick it to the vial. You'll thank yourself later.
3Sterilize both vial tops
Take an alcohol wipe and firmly wipe the rubber stopper on top of your BAC water vial. Take a second alcohol wipe and do the same to your peptide vial. Let both dry for 10β15 seconds. This step prevents contamination β never skip it.
β Use a fresh wipe for each vial. Don't reuse wipes or touch the rubber tops with your fingers after wiping.
4Draw up the BAC water
Open a fresh insulin syringe. Push the needle through the rubber stopper of the BAC water vial. Turn the vial upside down so the liquid is at the bottom. Pull the plunger back slowly to draw up the amount of BAC water you calculated in Step 2. Check for air bubbles β if you see any, gently tap the syringe and push them out.
β Draw up slightly more than you need, push any air out, then pull back to your exact amount.
5Add the BAC water to the peptide vial
Insert the needle through the rubber stopper of your peptide vial. Angle the needle so it points toward the inside wall of the glass β not directly at the powder. Push the plunger slowly and let the water run down the side of the vial. This gentle approach prevents the peptide from degrading due to force or foam.
β Never squirt the water directly onto the powder with force. Never shake the vial. Both can damage the peptide structure.
6Dissolve the peptide
After adding the water, the powder may not dissolve immediately. Gently roll the vial between your palms or swirl it in slow circles until the solution is clear. This usually takes 30β60 seconds. Some peptides take longer β be patient.
β The finished solution should be clear or very slightly colored. If it looks cloudy or has particles floating in it after several minutes of gentle mixing, do not use it.
7Store correctly
Place your reconstituted vial in the refrigerator immediately. It will remain stable for 28β30 days at 2β8Β°C. Label it with the date you reconstituted it so you know when it expires. Keep it away from light β store it in the box it came in or wrap it in foil if needed.
β Do not freeze reconstituted peptides. Freezing can damage the peptide structure. Freeze-drying (lyophilization) is done industrially under controlled conditions β a home freezer is not the same thing.
Injection basics
Most research peptides are administered subcutaneously (subQ) β injected into the fat layer just under the skin. This is different from intravenous (IV) injection, which goes into a vein, or intramuscular (IM) injection, which goes into muscle.
Subcutaneous (subQ) β most common
Inject into the fatty tissue just under the skin. Common sites are the abdomen (at least 2 inches from the belly button), the outer thigh, or the back of the upper arm. Pinch a small fold of skin, insert the needle at a 45-degree angle, and inject slowly. Most peptides in this library are administered subQ.
Intramuscular (IM) β some compounds
Injected directly into muscle tissue. Common sites are the outer thigh (vastus lateralis) or the deltoid (upper arm). Insert at a 90-degree angle. NAD+ is commonly referenced for IM administration. IM injection generally results in faster absorption than subQ.
Site rotation β always
Never inject in the same spot twice in a row. Rotating sites prevents scar tissue buildup (lipohypertrophy) which can affect absorption over time. If you inject in your abdomen, divide it mentally into quadrants and rotate through them.
βDrawing up your dose
Wipe the reconstituted peptide vial top with a fresh alcohol wipe. Let dry. Insert a fresh syringe needle through the stopper. Invert the vial. Draw back the plunger to the unit marking shown in the reconstitution calculator. Remove the needle, wipe your injection site with an alcohol wipe, let dry 10β15 seconds, then inject.
β Use the Reconstitution tab to calculate your exact unit marking every time. Never estimate.

Note on Bioregulator Peptides
Bioregulator peptides are short-chain peptides (2β4 amino acids) developed primarily by the Khavinson Institute in Russia. Most research is Russian-language, conducted over decades, but largely unpublished in Western peer-reviewed journals. They are generally considered low-risk due to their short structure and organ-specific mechanism, but Western clinical validation is limited.
General Considerations by Compound Class
Injection site reactions: Redness, swelling, bruising, infection risk. Sterile technique is non-negotiable in any research or clinical context.
Hormonal considerations: GH secretagogues may alter GH, IGF-1, cortisol, and insulin dynamics. Monitoring is indicated.
Long-term data gaps: Most compounds lack long-term human safety data beyond 6β12 months of studied use.
Batch quality variability: Research-grade compound purity varies widely across suppliers.
Oncologic considerations: Growth-promoting compounds may theoretically interact with existing tumor biology.
GLP-1 class: Adequate caloric intake, protein, and resistance training are critical to prevent lean mass and bone density loss during use.
