Description
Bacteriostatic Water 3ml — Reconstitution Diluent
Sterile water for injection preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, supplied in a 3ml multi-dose vial for reconstituting lyophilised research peptides. The benzyl alcohol content inhibits bacterial growth across multiple draws, making it the standard diluent choice over plain sterile water when a vial needs to stay usable for more than a single use.

- Always draw with a fresh sterile needle each time to avoid introducing contaminants

Common Questions
How fast does it ship? Same-day dispatch on orders placed before 1pm, from UK-held stock.
Why bacteriostatic water instead of plain sterile water? The benzyl alcohol preservative allows safe multiple draws from the same vial, whereas plain sterile water is single-use only once opened.
Can I use this with any peptide? It’s suitable as a general-purpose diluent for most lyophilised research peptides — check the specific peptide’s reconstitution guidance for any exceptions.
