Hospira BAC Water
Bacteriostatic Water is a pharmaceutical-grade sterile water supplied exclusively for reconstitution and dilution of research compounds in controlled laboratory settings. It is not intended for human or animal use.
Product Overview
Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP is sterile, non-pyrogenic water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. It is commonly used in research environments for the reconstitution of lyophilized peptides and the dilution of research compounds under controlled laboratory conditions.
The benzyl alcohol preservative inhibits bacterial growth in multi-dose containers, allowing researchers to maintain sterility across multiple extractions from a single vial over a 28-day period when stored properly.
Xeno Peptides provides Bacteriostatic Water in a sealed multi-dose vial format to support sterility and convenience during research applications. Each batch meets USP standards for sterility, pH, and endotoxin levels, helping researchers maintain dependable experimental conditions across studies.
