What is the difference between Vilon and TB-500?

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 TB-500?

Vilon has a molecular weight of about 275.3 g/mol and TB-500 about 889 g/mol (PubChem), so TB-500 is heavier by 613.7 g/mol, a ratio of 3.23. This means 1 mg of Vilon contains 3,632.4 nmol versus 1,124.9 nmol for TB-500.

How many mg of TB-500 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 TB-500 (MW 889) weighs 3.229 mg. Equimolar comparisons matter when testing two compounds side by side in the same assay.

Compare the molecular formulas of Vilon and TB-500

PubChem lists Vilon as C11H21N3O5 (275.3 g/mol) and TB-500 as C38H68N10O14 (889 g/mol). Vilon is a dipeptide; TB-500 is a peptide. These formulas refer to the parent compounds without salt counter-ions.
