— About this compound

What Bacteriostatic Water is

Sterile water for injection preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol. The preservative is what makes the vial multi-dose: it inhibits microbial growth, so the stopper can be punctured repeatedly over a working period rather than the vial being discarded after one withdrawal. It is the standard diluent for reconstituting lyophilised peptide.

— Mechanism

How Bacteriostatic Water
has been studied.

Signalling pathways examined in preclinical models. Descriptive of published research directions, not claims of effect.

Preservative

Bacteriostasis, not sterilisation

Benzyl alcohol inhibits bacterial reproduction rather than killing existing organisms outright. That distinction is why aseptic technique still matters at every withdrawal — the preservative buys working time, it does not make the vial forgiving.

  • Inhibits growth; does not sterilise contents
  • Effective across repeated stopper punctures
  • Discard 28 days after first puncture
Selection

Why not plain sterile water

Unpreserved sterile water carries no bacteriostat, so it is single-use — any organism introduced at first puncture multiplies freely. It remains the correct choice where benzyl alcohol would interfere with the work.

  • Unpreserved water is strictly single-use
  • Benzyl alcohol can interfere with some assays
  • Choose the diluent to suit the method
— Uses & applications

What Bacteriostatic Water is researched for

Reconstitution

Lyophilised material

Dissolving dry peptide to a known concentration for in-vitro work. See the dosage calculator for the arithmetic.

Multi-dose work

Repeated withdrawal

Where a single reconstituted vial is drawn from across a working period rather than consumed at once.

About Bacteriostatic Water

Still unsure? Ask the lab — median response under four hours.

That depends on the concentration you want. Adding more water lowers the concentration and increases the volume containing a given mass — which makes small amounts easier to measure accurately. Our dosage calculator does the arithmetic and shows the result on a syringe.

Discard 28 days after first puncture. Benzyl alcohol inhibits growth but does not sterilise, so the working window is finite regardless of how the vial looks.

Sterile water has no preservative and is single-use — once punctured, any organism introduced can multiply. Bacteriostatic water is preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which permits repeated withdrawal from the same vial.

15-30°C. Do not freeze. Protect from light and keep the stopper clean.
