BAC (Bacteriostatic Water)
- [Product type]
- Reagents
- [Format]
- Sterile aqueous solution
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water for injection containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative, allowing multiple withdrawals from the same vial without repackaging. It's used in research settings as a reconstitution diluent for lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides prior to laboratory use.
Unlike the compounds above, BAC water isn't itself a research subject — it's a supporting reagent, and researchers should confirm compatibility with the specific peptide being reconstituted before use.
This product is intended strictly for laboratory research use. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, or food product, and is not evaluated or approved by the FDA for any use in humans or animals. It is not for human consumption.
