Bacteriostatic Water

Bacteriostatic Water is a sterile aqueous solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, formulated to inhibit the growth and proliferation of microorganisms without directly destroying them. This bacteriostatic property makes it a critical resource in laboratory, experimental, and research environments, where sterility, chemical stability, and repeated vial access are essential. Within controlled research workflows, bacteriostatic water is most commonly utilized as a diluent for the reconstitution of lyophilized (freeze-dried) research compounds, including peptides, proteins, and other sensitive materials that require precise hydration prior to experimental application. Note: Bacteriostatic Water is sold as a research reagent for peptide reconstitution. It is not a medical product and must not be used for any human or veterinary injection.
