Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water)

Description

Bac water 10ml — what it is

Bac water 10ml (bacteriostatic water) is sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol (9 mg/ml) added as a preservative. The benzyl alcohol slows bacterial growth in the vial, which is why an opened vial of bac water can be used more than once. Sterile water without a preservative is meant for single use. Peptryn supplies bac water in a 10ml vial for laboratory use.
