Bac Water
Bacteriostatic water — the solvent for reconstituting lyophilised powders. Sterile water with 0.9 % benzyl alcohol, supplied as a solution.
- Sterile water for injection with **0.9 % benzyl alcohol** added.
- Benzyl alcohol acts bacteriostatically — it prevents microorganisms from multiplying in a vial that has already been opened.
- **It is neither a peptide nor an active substance.** It is a laboratory consumable.
- Reconstituting the lyophilised peptides in the catalog.
- Thanks to the bacteriostatic additive it is more suitable than plain sterile water wherever a vial is opened more than once.
- A saline solution contains no preservative, so once opened it is suitable for single use only.
- Some peptides are sensitive to ions; bacteriostatic water contains none.
- With copper complexes (GHK-Cu), additives in other solutions can interact with the metal ion.
- Store at 20–25 °C, do not freeze.
- After the stopper is first pierced, follow the date given on the packaging.
- Wipe the stopper before every withdrawal.
- The solution must be clear and free of turbidity. Do not use it if cloudy.
**No volume price is set for this item** — the price list shows a dash instead
of a price for 3+ units.
Even though this is a consumable, the same designation applies to it as to the
rest of the catalog: **strictly for laboratory and research use**. Benzyl alcohol
is not suitable for every application — for some sensitive systems, water without
a preservative is used instead.

The information given here is solely a summary of published research findings, predominantly from laboratory and animal models.

- Solvent
- Bacteriostatic water (Bac Water) — available as a separate item in the Supporting products category.
- Procedure
- Run the solvent down the wall of the vial, not directly onto the lyophilised powder. Do not shake the vial — swirl gently until fully dissolved.
- Note
- We provide no dosing protocols and no recommendations for use in humans. What is given here are laboratory handling procedures only.
- Lyophilised (unreconstituted)
- −20 °C, in the dark, in the original packaging.
- After reconstitution
- 2–8 °C, protected from light. Do not refreeze repeatedly.
- Transport
- Neutral packaging, no cold chain. A short-term rise in temperature during transit has no material effect on the lyophilised powder.
