Bacteriostatic Water for Suitable Laboratory Protocols
Bacteriostatic water contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative. It may be used to reconstitute certain lyophilized materials where the relevant protocol and product documentation specify this solvent.
Why Bacteriostatic Instead of Sterile?
Benzyl alcohol has a bacteriostatic effect, but it does not replace aseptic handling or batch-specific sterility testing. Permitted in-use period, withdrawal frequency and storage depend on the label, documentation and laboratory protocol.
Sizes, Storage & Use
GLOW UP BAC Water is available in 3 ml and 10 ml. The product label and batch-specific documentation govern storage and usable period. Our Bacteriostatic Water article explains reconstitution fundamentals; convert concentrations and laboratory volumes with the laboratory calculator. For research use only.
