Literature
What the literature describes
Bacteriostatic water is sterile USP water supplemented with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, a bacteriostatic agent that inhibits the growth of most common microorganisms. This solvent is used in the laboratory for the reconstitution of lyophilized peptides and allows reconstituted solutions to be stored refrigerated (2–8 °C). No inherent pharmacological effect is expected. These data come from the scientific literature and are provided strictly for informational purposes in a research context. This product is not intended for veterinary, diagnostic or therapeutic use and is not recommended for any use outside a scientific, professional and research setting.
