Bacteriostatic Water

Bacteriostatic water is specially prepared sterile water for injections that contains a small amount of a bacteriostatic preservative (usually 0.9% benzyl alcohol). The preservative prevents bacterial growth in the solution, making it safe for multiple uses when storing peptide solutions.

Features and Benefits

• Sterility and purity: The water undergoes strict sterilization and meets pharmacopoeia standards for injections.
• Extended storage: Thanks to the bacteriostatic component, reconstituted peptides can be stored longer than in regular sterile water, reducing the risk of microbial contamination.
• Multiple uses: Allows a single vial to be used for several peptide reconstitutions when proper storage and aseptic techniques are followed.
• Peptide stability: Minimizes the risk of degradation of biologically active compounds and maintains solution stability throughout its shelf life, as it prevents bacterial growth that could affect the peptide's activity.
• Compatibility: Suitable for lyophilized peptide preparations that require precise reconstitution to the desired concentration.

Usage

• Reconstitution of lyophilized peptides for subcutaneous (SubQ) or intramuscular (IM) injections.
• Compatible with peptides of various types, including hormonal, regenerative, and metabolic bioregulators.
• Ensures safe and convenient reconstitution without altering the active ingredient's properties.

Storage and Handling

• Store at 2-8°C; avoid freezing.
• Once opened, use the vial within the period specified by the manufacturer and always follow aseptic techniques when drawing the solution.
• Do not use for intravenous injections without specific medical guidance.

Bacteriostatic water is an ideal choice for safely reconstituting and storing peptide solutions, ensuring stability, purity, and long-term effectiveness of the products.
