Overview
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is the standard laboratory diluent for reconstituting lyophilised research peptides.
The preservative allows multiple withdrawals from a reconstituted vial across an extended working window, unlike plain sterile water.
Handling & storage
- Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
- Wipe the stopper with an alcohol swab before each withdrawal.
- Discard if the solution shows any cloudiness or particulate matter.
Research areas
The benzyl alcohol content inhibits microbial growth, extending the usable life of a reconstituted peptide preparation.
Most 10 mg vials are reconstituted with 2-3 ml depending on the target working concentration.
Suitable for the full Philippines Peptide catalogue.
