Bacteriostatic Water(3 mL)

3 mL of bacteriostatic water for reconstituting freeze-dried research compounds.

Mechanism of action

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, used in laboratory settings to reconstitute lyophilized research compounds. See the calculator page for reconstitution math.

In plain terms

Sterile water with a small amount of preservative added so it stays usable for multiple draws. The standard liquid for rehydrating freeze-dried peptides in the lab.
