Description
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is used to reconstitute lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides and other compounds for research purposes. The benzyl alcohol prevents bacterial growth, allowing the reconstituted solution to be stored and used over multiple sessions. This convenient 10ML vial is ideal for smaller research protocols — all lyophilized peptides require bacteriostatic water for proper reconstitution before use.
Potential Benefits
Research Notes
Bacteriostatic water is the standard reconstitution medium used in peptide research laboratories worldwide. The 0.9% benzyl alcohol concentration is the USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standard, providing effective bacteriostatic action while remaining compatible with most peptide compounds. Unlike sterile water for injection, bacteriostatic water can be used multiple times from the same vial due to its preservative content.
