BAC water (bacteriostatic water) is sterile, non-pyrogenic water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol used as a preservative to prevent bacterial growth in multi-dose vials.
Key Features
Composition: Sterile water mixed with 9 mg/mL (0.9%) of benzyl alcohol.
Preservative Action: The benzyl alcohol stops bacteria from growing after the vial is punctured.
Multi-Use: Allows you to draw multiple doses from the same vial over time, unlike regular sterile water which is for single use.
Shelf Life: Typically lasts up to 28 days after the first puncture when stored in a refrigerator.
Common Uses
Reconstitution: Mixing with lyophilized (freeze-dried) powders, such as laboratory peptides or specific medications, to turn them back into liquid form.
Dilution: Acting as a solvent or diluent to prepare compounds for injection or experimental use.
