Concentration
Also written mg/mL, strength
How much peptide there is in each millilitre of solution, once the vial has been reconstituted.
Concentration is the vial's milligrams divided by the millilitres of water added. A 5 mg vial mixed with 2 mL gives 2.5 mg per mL.
Every other figure follows from it. The volume you draw is your dose divided by the concentration, and the number of marks that volume comes to depends on which syringe you are holding.
