Bacteriostatic Water is a sterile water preparation containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The benzyl alcohol inhibits bacterial growth, allowing the solution to be used for multiple withdrawals from a single vial without contamination risk during research protocols. It is widely used in laboratory and research settings as a reconstitution medium for lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides, proteins, and other research compounds.
The use of bacteriostatic water is a standard practice in peptide research, as it maintains the stability and sterility of reconstituted compounds over an extended period compared to plain sterile water. Researchers commonly use bacteriostatic water when working with compounds such as growth hormone peptides, GHRH analogs, and other lyophilized research materials that require a sterile solvent for dissolution.
Each 10ml vial is intended solely for laboratory and research use. Proper storage conditions should follow the requirements of the dissolved research compound once reconstituted.
