Bacteriostatic Water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The preservative allows the same vial to be accessed multiple times, which makes it the standard diluent for reconstituting lyophilised research peptides in the laboratory.
- Composition: Sterile water, 0.9% benzyl alcohol
- Use: Reconstitution of lyophilised peptides (research)
- Format: Multi-use vial
- Storage: Room temperature, away from light
A companion consumable for the rest of the range — every lyophilised peptide requires a diluent before study.
