What is the difference between Vilon and Matrixyl?
Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide from the Khavinson short-peptide series studied in thymus and immune-cell research models (dipeptide, MW about 275.3 g/mol).
Which is heavier, Vilon or Matrixyl?
Vilon has a molecular weight of about 275.3 g/mol and Matrixyl about 802.1 g/mol (PubChem), so Matrixyl is heavier by 526.8 g/mol, a ratio of 2.91. This means 1 mg of Vilon contains 3,632.4 nmol versus 1,246.7 nmol for Matrixyl.
How many mg of Matrixyl are equimolar to 1 mg of Vilon?
1 mg of Vilon (MW 275.3) is 3,632.4 nmol. The same number of moles of Matrixyl (MW 802.1) weighs 2.914 mg. Equimolar comparisons matter when testing two compounds side by side in the same assay.
Compare the molecular formulas of Vilon and Matrixyl
PubChem lists Vilon as C11H21N3O5 (275.3 g/mol) and Matrixyl as C39H75N7O10 (802.1 g/mol). Vilon is a dipeptide; Matrixyl is a lipopeptide. These formulas refer to the parent compounds without salt counter-ions.
A 5 mg vial of Matrixyl equals how many mg of Vilon in moles?
5 mg of Matrixyl (MW 802.1) is 6.234 µmol. The same amount of Vilon (MW 275.3) would weigh 1.716 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
A 10 mg vial of Matrixyl equals how many mg of Vilon in moles?
10 mg of Matrixyl (MW 802.1) is 12.467 µmol. The same amount of Vilon (MW 275.3) would weigh 3.432 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 Matrixyl in moles?
10 mg of Vilon (MW 275.3) is 36.324 µmol. The same amount of Matrixyl (MW 802.1) would weigh 29.135 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 Matrixyl in moles?
20 mg of Vilon (MW 275.3) is 72.648 µmol. The same amount of Matrixyl (MW 802.1) would weigh 58.271 mg. This equimolar conversion lets two compounds be compared at matched molar amounts in the same experiment.
