BAC Water 3ml

What is BAC Water?

Bacteriostatic water (BAC water) is sterile water for injection containing 0.9 % benzyl alcohol as an antimicrobial preservative. It prevents bacterial growth in the container, allowing for multiple withdrawals from the same vial – ideal for the reconstitution of lyophilized peptides in the research laboratory.

Application

BAC Water is used for the reconstitution of lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides. After dissolving the peptide powder, the solution remains stable and sterile for longer due to the benzyl alcohol than with ordinary sterile water.

Product data

Not for human or veterinary use. For laboratory research purposes only.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much BAC Water do I need for my peptide vial?
The exact amount depends on the desired target concentration — you can find an example calculation and the common dilution levels in our application instructions.

What size is suitable for a single vial?
The 3 ml size is well suited for single reconstitutions of smaller vials — for multiple vials or larger quantities, the 10 ml variant is more economical.
