What is the difference between GHRP-2 and Vilon?
GHRP-2 is a synthetic growth hormone secretagogue hexapeptide studied as a ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) agonist in endocrine research (peptide, MW about 818 g/mol).
Which is heavier, GHRP-2 or Vilon?
GHRP-2 has a molecular weight of about 818 g/mol and Vilon about 275.3 g/mol (PubChem), so GHRP-2 is heavier by 542.7 g/mol, a ratio of 2.97. This means 1 mg of GHRP-2 contains 1,222.5 nmol versus 3,632.4 nmol for Vilon.
How many mg of Vilon are equimolar to 1 mg of GHRP-2?
1 mg of GHRP-2 (MW 818) is 1,222.5 nmol. The same number of moles of Vilon (MW 275.3) weighs 0.3366 mg. Equimolar comparisons matter when testing two compounds side by side in the same assay.
Compare the molecular formulas of GHRP-2 and Vilon
PubChem lists GHRP-2 as C45H55N9O6 (818 g/mol) and Vilon as C11H21N3O5 (275.3 g/mol). GHRP-2 is a peptide; Vilon is a dipeptide. These formulas refer to the parent compounds without salt counter-ions.
A 5 mg vial of GHRP-2 equals how many mg of Vilon in moles?
5 mg of GHRP-2 (MW 818) is 6.112 µmol. The same amount of Vilon (MW 275.3) would weigh 1.683 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
A 10 mg vial of GHRP-2 equals how many mg of Vilon in moles?
10 mg of GHRP-2 (MW 818) is 12.225 µmol. The same amount of Vilon (MW 275.3) would weigh 3.366 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
A 10 mg vial of Vilon equals how many mg of GHRP-2 in moles?
10 mg of Vilon (MW 275.3) is 36.324 µmol. The same amount of GHRP-2 (MW 818) would weigh 29.713 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
A 20 mg vial of Vilon equals how many mg of GHRP-2 in moles?
20 mg of Vilon (MW 275.3) is 72.648 µmol. The same amount of GHRP-2 (MW 818) would weigh 59.426 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
