Bacteriostatic Water FAQ.
What is bacteriostatic water?+
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which inhibits the growth of bacteria. The preservative is what allows a vial to be drawn from more than once, making it the standard diluent for reconstituting lyophilized research compounds.Why do I need it?+
Lyophilized (freeze-dried) compounds are supplied as a solid powder and must be dissolved into liquid before they can be handled in a research protocol. Bacteriostatic water is the diluent used for that reconstitution. One 30mL vial covers many reconstitutions.How should it be stored?+
Store the sealed vial at room temperature away from light. After the stopper is first punctured, refrigerate it. See our handling & storage guide.How much should I order?+
A single 30mL multi-dose vial covers many reconstitutions, so one is enough for most orders. If you're reconstituting several compounds at once, you may want more than one on hand.How does shipping work?+
Orders ship from within the United States with tracking. Orders of $99 or more ship free; orders under $99 ship for a flat $4.95. We ship to the U.S. only. Full shipping details.What if my vial arrives damaged?+
