Bacteriostatic Water - 10ML
About Bacteriostatic Water - 10ML
Bacteriostatic Water is a reconstitution solvent, not a peptide or active research compound. It consists of sterile water for injection combined with a bacteriostatic agent, most commonly 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which suppresses the growth of microorganisms and allows the solution to be accessed multiple times over a limited period while reducing contamination risk. It carries no CAS number, molecular formula, or receptor identity because it is a formulated diluent rather than a single defined molecule.
In research workflows, bacteriostatic water is used to dissolve and reconstitute lyophilized (freeze-dried) research materials into a liquid solution for downstream handling. The bacteriostatic property makes it suitable for multi-use scenarios where a reconstituted solution may be drawn from over several days or weeks, in contrast to single-use sterile water. This item is supplied for laboratory research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
Research use only — not for human or animal consumption. Per-batch documentation is provided with the material.
Handling and Storage Tips 1:
Keep peptides cold and away from light once received.
For short-term use (days to weeks), refrigeration at 4°C (39°F) is acceptable.
Lyophilized peptides are typically stable at room temperature for several weeks, making it suitable for moderate-term storage.
For long-term storage (months to years), it’s best to freeze peptides at -80°C (-112°F). Freezing optimally preserves peptide stability for extended periods.

Bacteriostatic water differs from plain sterile water primarily through the inclusion of a bacteriostatic preservative, typically benzyl alcohol, which inhibits microbial proliferation and supports repeated access to a reconstituted vial. It contributes no pharmacological activity of its own; its role is limited to acting as a stable, low-contamination solvent for dissolving lyophilized research materials.
Bacteriostatic water has long been used across laboratory and pharmaceutical settings as a standard diluent for reconstituting freeze-dried compounds, valued for the extended usability that its bacteriostatic preservative provides compared with single-use sterile water.
Are these research materials third-party tested?
Yes — every batch is analysed by an accredited (ISO 17025) independent laboratory using HPLC and mass spectrometry, with a per-batch Certificate of Analysis.
What purity are the materials?
Materials are verified to 99%+ HPLC purity. Any batch that does not meet the threshold is not released.
Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?
Yes. Per-batch COA documentation is provided and is traceable by lot number.
Where do you ship from?
Materials are shipped from the USA in discreet, protective packaging.
Are these products for human use?
No. All materials are sold strictly for laboratory research use only — not for human or animal consumption, diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of any disease.
