Reusable Peptide Pen Injector UK (3ml Cartridge Pen)

Description

Peptide Pen Injector — Reusable 3ml Cartridge Pen (V3)

A precision reusable injection pen engineered for researchers working with reconstituted peptide solutions. Constructed from anodised aluminium with an aircraft-grade body, this pen accepts standard 3ml borosilicate glass cartridges and delivers controlled, repeatable volumes with dial-in precision — making it a preferred delivery device for laboratory peptide research protocols.

Compatible with the Optimised Lifestyle 3ml Sterile Glass Cartridges and standard insulin-gauge pen needles (31G recommended). Designed for use with aqueous reconstituted solutions prepared with sterile diluent.

⚙️ Technical Specifications

🔬 Why Researchers Use This Pen

• Precision dosing — Dial-in mechanism eliminates the volume estimation errors common with conventional insulin syringes, critical when working with small volumes of concentrated peptide solutions
• Repeatability — Consistent click-mechanism delivery reduces inter-injection variability in longitudinal research protocols
• Cartridge system — 3ml cartridges hold significantly more reconstituted solution than standard vials, reducing reconstitution frequency in extended research protocols
• Cost efficiency — Reusable aluminium body; only cartridges and pen needles require replacement
• Sterile handling — Sealed cartridge system minimises contamination risk compared to multi-draw vials with conventional syringes

🧪 Setting Up Your Research Protocol

Step 1 — Reconstitution
Reconstitute your lyophilised peptide in sterile diluent to your target concentration. Common research concentrations range from 2–10mg/ml depending on the compound and protocol.

Step 2 — Loading the cartridge
Draw the reconstituted solution into a 3ml borosilicate glass cartridge using a standard syringe. Insert the cartridge into the pen body.

Step 3 — Needle attachment
Attach a sterile 31G × 6mm pen needle (recommended for subcutaneous research applications). Perform a 1–2 unit air prime before first use.

Step 4 — Dose dialling
Dial the required dose using the click mechanism. Each unit corresponds to a fixed volume based on your cartridge concentration.

Full reconstitution volume and concentration calculation guidance is available in our Peptide Reconstitution Guide.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What cartridges are compatible?
Standard 3ml borosilicate glass cartridges with a 29mm × 12mm rubber stopper. Optimised Lifestyle supplies compatible cartridges in packs of 5.

What needle gauge is recommended?
31G × 4mm or 31G × 6mm pen needles are standard for subcutaneous laboratory research applications. Available in our pack of 10.

Do I need sterile diluent?
Sterile diluent is the standard reconstitution solvent for most research peptides — it maintains sterility over multiple draws. See our reconstitution guide for step-by-step preparation.

Is this pen reusable?
Yes. The aluminium pen body is designed for extended reuse. Cartridges and pen needles are single-use and should be replaced between each cartridge/session.

What is the difference between this pen and the kit?
The Peptide Pen Kit includes the pen, cartridges, sterile diluent and needles — providing everything needed to begin a research protocol in a single purchase. This listing is the pen body only.
