Description
A sterile, non-pyrogenic preparation of water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, designed for the reconstitution and dilution of research compounds.
Bacteriostatic Water is a highly purified, sterile preparation of water (H2O) containing 0.9% (9 mg/mL) of benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic preservative. In laboratory and clinical research environments, this specialized solvent is designed to allow for multiple entries into the container, as the benzyl alcohol effectively inhibits the growth of potentially contaminating bacteria. As a fundamental reagent in biochemical research, Bacteriostatic Water is primarily utilised for the reconstitution and dilution of lyophilised peptides and proteins. Its chemical stability and antimicrobial properties ensure the integrity of the dissolved solutes over a short-term period, preventing microbial degradation that could otherwise compromise experimental results or assay sensitivity.
Product Overview
Bacteriostatic Water (10ml) is a critical lab supply used as a solvent for various research applications. Unlike standard sterile water for injection, the inclusion of 0.9% benzyl alcohol serves as a preservative, allowing the solution to remain stable for up to 28 days once the vial is punctured, provided it is stored in a controlled environment.
Specifications
Form: Sterile Liquid Solution Volume: 10ml Composition: 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol, 99.1% Purified Water Purity: USP Grade Reagents Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not freeze.
Research Applications
In published literature, Bacteriostatic Water is the standard medium for the reconstitution of synthetic peptides. Research focuses on its role in maintaining the solubility and stability of peptide chains. Scientists utilise this medium to ensure that experimental compounds remain free from bacterial proliferation during the duration of an in vitro study or longitudinal research project.
