Premium Bacteriostatic Water 10mL by Peptide Hubs
Ensure the integrity and longevity of your research peptides with Peptide Hubs' premium Bacteriostatic Water. This sterile, pyrogen-free solution contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative, specifically formulated for the reconstitution and preservation of lyophilized peptides. Our Bacteriostatic Water meets USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards, guaranteeing the highest quality for your research needs.
Scientific Formulation for Optimal Peptide Preservation
Bacteriostatic Water is not simply sterile water—it's a carefully engineered solution designed to maintain peptide stability while preventing microbial growth. The 0.9% benzyl alcohol concentration is specifically calibrated to inhibit bacterial growth without compromising peptide integrity. This concentration has been established through extensive research as the optimal balance between antimicrobial efficacy and peptide compatibility.
According to guidelines from the United States Pharmacopeia, bacteriostatic water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol is the recommended diluent for multi-dose parenteral preparations. The benzyl alcohol acts through multiple mechanisms: disrupting microbial cell membranes, inhibiting enzyme systems, and preventing the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that could degrade your valuable peptides.
Essential Benefits for Peptide Researchers
Microbial Protection
Prevents bacterial and fungal contamination in reconstituted peptides, ensuring product stability and safety.
Extended Shelf Life
Allows reconstituted peptides to maintain potency for 4-6 weeks when properly refrigerated.
Peptide Compatibility
Specifically formulated to maintain peptide stability without degrading molecular structure.
Precise Concentration Control
Enables accurate dosing through consistent dilution ratios and maintained sterility.
For optimal peptide research results, pair with our Ultra-Fine Insulin Syringes which allow for precise measurement and administration of reconstituted peptides.
Proper Reconstitution Protocol
Always follow aseptic technique when reconstituting peptides. Clean the rubber stopper of both the peptide vial and bacteriostatic water with alcohol swabs. Draw 1-2 mL of bacteriostatic water into a sterile syringe, then slowly inject it into the peptide vial, aiming the stream against the glass wall to minimize foaming. Gently swirl the vial until the peptide is completely dissolved—do not shake vigorously. Store reconstituted peptides in the refrigerator and use within 4-6 weeks for optimal potency.
