What is Bacteriostatic Water?
Bacteriostatic Water 30ml is a research-grade supplies peptide compound supplied as a sterile lyophilized powder for laboratory research applications. Laboratory supplies for peptide reconstitution and handling.
Research mechanism
Bacteriostatic water (sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol) is used to reconstitute lyophilized peptide research compounds, with the benzyl alcohol providing bacteriostatic activity for repeated vial entries.
Research applications
Bacteriostatic water is the standard reconstitution vehicle for the majority of peptide research compounds. Sterile water without preservative is used when bacteriostatic agents are contraindicated for the assay.
Storage & handling
Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Inspect for clarity before use.
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water using sterile technique. See our FAQ on reconstitution for typical research-grade reconstitution protocols.
