Injection Angle 45° angle targeting vial sidewall Direct injection onto lyophilised powder Protein aggregation, foam formation, denatured peptide Reconstitution Volume 1–2mL per 5mg peptide (5mg/mL or 2.5mg/mL) Arbitrary volume w…
Before choosing a diluent, understand what each option controls and what it doesn't. Multi-dose viability 28 days at 2–8°C after opening 24 hours maximum after opening BAC water is the only viable option for protocols requiring m…
Bacteriostatic water (BAC water) is sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol added as a bacteriostatic agent. Not a bactericidal agent. The distinction matters: bacteriostatic compounds prevent bacterial reproduction without killin…
Bacteriostatic Water 0.9% benzyl alcohol Up to 28 days post-puncture Required after opening Multi-dose peptide vials requiring repeated draws Mandatory for any peptide protocol involving more than one injection per vial. The anti…
Choosing the wrong reconstitution solvent doesn't just reduce peptide lifespan. It can render the compound inactive before the first injection. Here's how BAC water for mixing peptides compares to the alternatives researchers com…
Not all bacteriostatic water is formulated to the same pharmaceutical standard. This table compares the key quality markers that determine whether a BAC water product is suitable for research-grade peptide reconstitution. Pharmac…
