Bacteriostatic Water (0.9% Benzyl Alcohol Solution for Injection / Reconstitution)
Description:
Bacteriostatic Water is a sterile, non-pyrogenic water preparation containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative and bacteriostatic agent. It is commonly used as a diluent or solvent for reconstituting lyophilized peptides, hormones, and biological research compounds. The benzyl alcohol content prevents bacterial growth, allowing multiple withdrawals from the same vial under aseptic conditions.
Key Benefits:
Sterile and non-pyrogenic water for peptide and compound reconstitution
Contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol for antimicrobial preservation
Extends shelf life of reconstituted peptides when properly stored
Suitable for multi-use vial applications in research settings
Ensures purity and consistency for laboratory preparation
Mechanism of Action:
Bacteriostatic Water functions as a sterile carrier medium, providing a pure aqueous environment for dissolving or diluting compounds for laboratory use. The benzyl alcohol acts as a mild bacteriostatic agent, inhibiting the growth of potential contaminants while preserving peptide stability for repeated use. Its isotonic profile and pharmaceutical-grade purity make it a standard solvent for research peptide reconstitution and sterile formulation studies.
