Reconstituting LL-37
Concentration is vial contents divided by water added, whatever the compound: a 5 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water gives 2.5 mg/mL. The step-by-step reconstitution guide works through the arithmetic, and the free calculator below returns exact syringe units.
This is a reference entry. An expanded profile — mechanism, cited literature, protocol tables and reconstitution math — is being added across the library.
