Bac Water 3ml Research Vial

BAC Water 3 ml — Bacteriostatic Water for Peptide Reconstitution & Laboratory Use

Full Description

Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) is a sterile, non-pyrogenic aqueous solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is the standard diluent investigated and utilized in preclinical and laboratory research settings for the reconstitution of lyophilized peptides, proteins, and other research compounds, allowing multiple aseptic withdrawals from a single vial while inhibiting microbial growth.

What It Is

• Class: Sterile bacteriostatic diluent / solvent

• Concept: Provides a stable, multi-dose compatible medium that maintains sterility during repeated access, ideal for dissolving and administering research-grade peptides and compounds in controlled laboratory environments.

• Format: Ready-to-use sterile solution supplied in sealed multi-dose vials.

Proposed Mechanisms (Preclinical)

Antimicrobial Preservation

• 0.9% benzyl alcohol inhibits bacterial proliferation by disrupting microbial cell membrane function without killing existing organisms (bacteriostatic action).

• Enables repeated vial access while reducing the risk of contamination under proper aseptic technique.

Solvent Compatibility

• Serves as an inert, pH-balanced vehicle (typically pH 4.5–7.0) compatible with most synthetic peptides and biologics.

• Mantains solubility and stability of reconstituted research compounds for short- to medium-term laboratory use.

Selected Research Highlights

• Peptide Reconstitution: Widely used as the preferred solvent for preparing stable peptide solutions in metabolic, regenerative, and immunomodulatory research protocols.

• Multi-Dose Laboratory Efficiency: Supports repeated sterile withdrawals, making it ideal for dose-response, time-course, and long-term storage studies.

• Compatibility Studies: Extensively validated with common research peptides (e.g., Tirzepatide, BPC-157, TB-500, Tesamorelin) for solubility and stability.

• Sterility Maintenance: Demonstrated to inhibit common laboratory contaminants when handled according to aseptic SOPs.

• Standard in Preclinical Work: Accepted USP-grade formulation used across peptide, hormone, and biopharmaceutical research laboratories worldwide.
