Measures Chart

Calulation for less than 100% actives.


Just take the amount of active you desire and divide it by the amount in the active to give the total amount needed.

Example

DMAE B. = 37% active

You want 5% total of DMAE B 37% in a base.

Just remove the % signs and divide the amount wanted by the amount in the active

5/37=.135

Then just multiply by 100

.135x100=13.5%

You will need to use 13.5% of DMAE B to make a 5% DMAE B in a base.

So you use 13.5% in you calculations to get 5% DMAE B.

  • All measurements are based on 1/2 a teaspoon (level, loosely filled), using a standard set of kitchen measuring spoons.
