What Is Bac Water? Bacteriostatic Water Explained

Bac water is short for bacteriostatic water: sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol added. The benzyl alcohol slows bacterial growth, so a vial can be opened more than once. Plain sterile water has no preservative and is meant for one use.

Why it matters for research peptides

Peptides ship as a dry powder because they keep longer that way. In the lab, the powder is mixed with a liquid before use, and bac water is the usual choice.

What we include

Tick the box at checkout and we'll add a free 3ml bac water to your order. If you need more, we also carry Hospira 30ml. Our bac water calculator helps with the math.

Storing it

Keep it at room temperature or cooler, sealed and out of direct light. Throw out any vial that looks cloudy.

The short version

Everything here is sold for laboratory research use only. It is not for human or animal use, and nothing on this page is dosing or medical advice. We review the COAs our suppliers send us, but we don't publish lab reports of our own.
