For laboratory research use only. Not for human consumption.

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water that ordinarily carries 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative; it serves as a diluent for dissolving substances for research purposes and is intended for laboratory research only (Research Use Only).

What is bacteriostatic water?

It is neither a peptide nor an active substance in its own right. The benzyl alcohol preservative is there to inhibit bacterial growth once the vial has been opened, so that multiple withdrawals can be taken from the same vial over time, according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Using bacteriostatic water for reconstitution

Its usual role is that of a diluent when powders are reconstituted for research purposes. Having a preservative present does not remove the need for sterile working conditions.

Disclaimer: this product is intended for laboratory research use only. Purchase permitted from age 18 and over.

Full research information & sources

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water that typically includes 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol, a preservative whose purpose is to inhibit the growth of bacteria once the vial has been opened. It serves as a diluent for preparing or reconstituting certain substances, in line with the manufacturer’s instructions and the intended use of the product.

Two points deserve emphasis: the fluid is not a peptide and has no activity of its own, and the presence of the preservative is no substitute for sterile working conditions. Not every substance is suitable for dilution with bacteriostatic water. Storage should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, keeping the packaging intact and the storage conditions appropriate.

In short, this is a preserved sterile solution used as a diluent across a range of medical and research applications, and its suitability depends on the substance one wishes to prepare.
