0.9% benzyl alcohol in sterile water — the standard reconstitution medium.

Overview

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water for injection with 0.9% benzyl alcohol added as a preservative. The alcohol suppresses microbial growth, which is what allows a vial to be accessed more than once — sterile water for injection is single-use by comparison.

Research applications

  • Reconstitution of lyophilised research peptides
  • Multiple accesses of a single vial
  • Extended working life versus plain sterile water
  • Pharmaceutical grade, endotoxin tested

Mechanism of action

Benzyl alcohol at 0.9% acts as a bacteriostatic preservative, inhibiting microbial growth without compromising peptide integrity. The sterile water base is endotoxin tested and pH balanced for reconstitution.
