Bacteriostatic water is a sterile aqueous solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The preservative inhibits bacterial growth so a sealed multi-dose vial can be accessed more than once, which makes it a common laboratory diluent for reconstituting lyophilized (freeze-dried) research compounds. Available in 3 mL and 10 mL multi-dose vials.
- Preservative: 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol
- Sterility: USP-grade, sterile filtered
- Container: Multi-dose glass vial, self-sealing stopper
- Sizes: 3 mL and 10 mL
- Storage: Room temperature (15–25°C / 59–77°F), protect from light
