Oxytocin Acetate is a short peptide with the molecular formula C43H66N12O12S2 and a molecular weight of 1007.2 g/mol (PubChem CID 439302). Aegis Bio supplies it as lyophilised powder in 3 specifications, for in-vitro laboratory research use only.
Supplied against a ≥99% HPLC purity specification. Lots are analysed by Janoshik Analytical, an independent laboratory commissioned by the manufacturer, and Aegis Bio submits selected lots to Accumark in California for its own independent verification. The figure measured for the lot supplied is stated on its certificate of analysis, available by request before ordering. What each section of a COA establishes.

|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mg x 10 vials | 100 mg | $256.30 | $2.563/mg |

Choosing a specification
Oxytocin Acetate is listed in 3 specifications. Measured by cost per milligram — the only figure that compares cleanly across different strengths and vial counts — the best value is the 10 mg x 10 vials at $256.30, which works out to $2.563/mg. The least efficient listing is the 5 mg x 1 vial at $44.00, or $8.800/mg — a 3.4× premium per milligram.
The single 5 mg x 1 vial vial at $44.00 exists to evaluate the material before committing to pack quantities; the 10 mg x 10 vials pack brings the rate down to $2.563/mg. Whether that premium is worth paying depends on whether you will consume pack quantities within the material's useful life — unused material is not cheap material. Single vials also ship at the reduced $20.00 rate when ordered alone, and ride along free inside any order containing a pack.
Reconstitution reference
Resulting concentration by vial strength and diluent volume. Arithmetic only, provided for laboratory preparation and dilution planning — this is not dosing guidance. The method is set out in the reconstitution and dilution guide.
| Vial | +1 mL | +2 mL | +3 mL | +5 mL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 5.00 mg/mL | 2.50 mg/mL | 1.67 mg/mL | 1.00 mg/mL |
| 10 mg | 10.00 mg/mL | 5.00 mg/mL | 3.33 mg/mL | 2.00 mg/mL |
Molar reference
Molar quantity per vial at each available strength, calculated from a molecular weight of 1007.2 g/mol. Useful where a protocol is specified in molar rather than mass terms. Values are for the free peptide; net peptide content per vial depends on water and counter-ion content stated on the certificate of analysis.
| Vial | Micromoles | Nanomoles |
|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 4.964 µmol | 4964 nmol |
| 10 mg | 9.929 µmol | 9929 nmol |
Physicochemical profile
Oxytocin Acetate is a short peptide: 69 heavy atoms with 17 rotatable bonds and a computed structural complexity index of 1870. Its topological polar surface area is 450 Ų, with 12 hydrogen-bond donors and 15 acceptors, and a computed XLogP of -2.6 places it in the hydrophilic range. The reference structure is formally neutral.
For identity confirmation by mass spectrometry the figure to compare against is the monoisotopic mass, 1006.43645793 Da, rather than the average molecular weight of 1007.2 g/mol. The two diverge as molecules get larger, because the average weight accounts for natural isotope abundance across every atom. See what identity and purity each prove.
| Descriptor | Value |
|---|---|
| Monoisotopic mass | 1006.43645793 Da |
| Average molecular weight | 1007.2 g/mol |
| Topological polar surface area | 450 Ų |
| Computed XLogP | -2.6 |
| Hydrogen-bond donors / acceptors | 12 / 15 |
| Rotatable bonds | 17 |
| Heavy atoms | 69 |
| Formal charge | 0 |
| Structural complexity index | 1870 |
Descriptors are computed values published by PubChem for the reference structure. They describe the molecule, not the supplied lot — measured purity and identity for the batch you receive are stated on its certificate of analysis.
How this compares within its class
By best available cost per milligram it ranks 4 of 4 in Endocrine & Receptor, against a class range of $1.617 to $2.563 per mg. At 1007.2 g/mol it is the lightest of the 4 compounds in this class with a published molecular weight, which is what drives the molar figures above. It is listed in 3 specifications, against a class median of 2.
Comparisons are drawn from the current Aegis Bio catalog and are procurement figures only — they carry no implication about relative suitability for any purpose. See the full endocrine & receptor class →

Storage and handling
Several materials in this class are light-sensitive, particularly the melanocortin analogues, which contain tryptophan and are prone to photo-oxidation. Keep vials in their original packaging or foil-wrapped, and minimise the time reconstituted solution spends exposed to light.
- Lyophilised powder: store sealed at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture.
- Bring sealed vials to room temperature before opening, so warm air does not condense moisture onto cold powder.
- Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water directed against the vial wall; do not shake or vortex. Swirl gently until dissolved.
- After reconstitution: store at 2–8 °C and use within the working period established by your laboratory.
- Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Aliquot where the solution will be accessed repeatedly.

Documentation
A certificate of analysis is available by request for the batch supplied, covering HPLC purity and mass-spectrometry identity confirmation. The two measurements answer different questions — identity confirms the molecule, purity quantifies how much of the sample it represents. See what each one proves. Where work is planned in peptide rather than powder mass, use the peptide content stated on the certificate: the lyophilised cake also holds water and counter-ions. See the certificate library.

Frequently asked
What specifications of Oxytocin Acetate are available?
Oxytocin Acetate is listed in 3 specifications: 5 mg x 1 vial, 5 mg x 10 vials, 10 mg x 10 vials. Prices are in USD and include the vial.
What is the cheapest way to buy Oxytocin Acetate from Aegis Bio?
The lowest-priced listing is the 5 mg × 1 vial at $44, which works out at $8.80 per mg. Delivered that is $64, including $20 single-vial shipping. WELCOME10 takes 10% off the items subtotal of a first order at checkout; codes do not apply to items already on sale.
Do you sell Oxytocin Acetate single vials?
Yes. Oxytocin Acetate 5 mg single vials are $44 each, and a cart of single vials and bacteriostatic water ships for $20. Single vials ship free alongside a kit. A certificate of analysis is available by request for the lot supplied.
Do these materials need protection from light?
Several do, particularly the melanocortin analogues, which contain tryptophan and are prone to photo-oxidation. Keep vials in their original packaging or foil-wrapped, and minimise the time reconstituted solution spends exposed to light.
Is a certificate of analysis available for Oxytocin Acetate?
Yes. A certificate of analysis is available by request for the batch supplied, covering HPLC purity and mass-spectrometry identity confirmation. Request the COA for a specific lot before ordering if your protocol requires documentation on file.
How should Oxytocin Acetate be stored?
Store the lyophilised powder sealed at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. After reconstitution, store at 2–8 °C and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Bring sealed vials to room temperature before opening to avoid condensation onto cold powder.
What does shipping cost?
Carts of single vials and bacteriostatic water ship for $20.00. Any cart containing a kit ships for $50.00 standard or $80.00 expedited, with single vials and bacteriostatic water included free. From 4 kits upward the rate drops to $30.00 standard or $50.00 expedited. Bacteriostatic water is a diluent and never counts as a kit. Anywhere outside the United States ships for a flat $80.00, whatever the cart holds. Shipping is added at checkout and revalidated on the server before the order is accepted.
How is payment handled?
Online checkout accepts on-chain Bitcoin or USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20). Other payment methods are available through WhatsApp. No card details are collected. Orders remain pending until the payment is verified on-chain, after which a confirmation is sent.
