Third-party tested. Click image to view full-resolution certificate.
BAC Water is a bacteriostatic water solution preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, formulated for use in controlled research environments. The presence of benzyl alcohol helps inhibit bacterial growth within the container, allowing for multiple withdrawals when proper aseptic technique is maintained.
This solution is intended strictly for laboratory and research applications, such as diluting or reconstituting compatible research materials under appropriate conditions. It is not intended for human or veterinary use.
About Bacteriostatic Water peptides
BAC Water (bacteriostatic water) is a sterile, water-based solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative agent. In research settings, it is commonly used:
- As a diluent or vehicle for certain compatible research compounds
- For reconstitution of lyophilized materials in non-clinical experiments
- In applications that may require multiple withdrawals from the same container when aseptic procedures are followed
The 30mL container format offers convenient volume for repeated use in small to moderate-scale experiments, providing flexibility for ongoing or multi-step protocols. All handling should comply with standard laboratory safety and sterility practices.
Bacteriostatic Water peptides Scientific Research
In laboratory environments, BAC Water is a utility solution that supports a variety of experimental workflows. Typical research-related considerations include:
Vehicle and Diluent Use
Researchers often use bacteriostatic water as a vehicle in:
- Reconstituting powdered or lyophilized research materials
- Preparing working solutions from concentrated stock materials
- Supporting solubility or dispersion of compatible compounds in aqueous systems
The benzyl alcohol content helps limit microbial growth in the container between uses, which can be beneficial when small aliquots are drawn repeatedly under sterile conditions.
Handling and Aseptic Technique
Proper handling is essential to maintain the integrity of BAC Water in research use:
- Withdrawals should be performed with sterile syringes or equipment
- The stopper and contact surfaces should be disinfected prior to each use
- Containers should be stored in accordance with laboratory guidelines and discarded if contamination is suspected
While the solution is bacteriostatic, not bactericidal, adherence to aseptic technique is still required to minimize experimental variability and contamination risk.
Compatibility and Experimental Design
When selecting BAC Water as a diluent, researchers typically evaluate:
- Chemical compatibility of benzyl alcohol with the research compound
- Any potential impact on assay readouts, especially in sensitive biological or analytical systems
- Appropriate dilution factors and storage conditions based on the properties of the material being reconstituted
These considerations help ensure that BAC Water functions as a neutral and supportive component in experimental setups.
Bacteriostatic Water peptides FAQ
A1: BAC Water is a sterile 30mL aqueous solution preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, used as a bacteriostatic diluent or vehicle for compatible research materials in controlled laboratory settings.
Q2: Why does BAC Water contain benzyl alcohol?
A2: Benzyl alcohol at 0.9% acts as a preservative, helping to inhibit bacterial growth in the container and allowing for multiple withdrawals when proper aseptic technique is followed.
Q3: Is BAC Water intended for human or veterinary use?
A3: No. BAC Water is supplied for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary injection, ingestion, or any therapeutic application.
Q4: Can BAC Water be used multiple times from the same vial?
A4: Yes, the solution and container are designed to support multiple withdrawals under appropriate sterile conditions, provided aseptic technique is maintained and contamination is avoided.
Q5: How should BAC Water be stored in the lab?
A5: BAC Water should be stored according to standard laboratory guidelines—typically in a cool, controlled environment and protected from contamination—following the storage recommendations provided on the container or accompanying documentation.
