Bacteriostatic Water – 10mL

Bacteriostatic water is a staple laboratory reagent, and LYFE Science stocks it as a 10mL vial so Canadian researchers can complete their orders in one place. Most research peptides ship as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, and bringing them into solution for characterization and study requires a suitable diluent. When you buy bacteriostatic water in Canada from LYFE Science, you get a laboratory-grade reagent that pairs cleanly with the rest of your research materials.

What bacteriostatic water is

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water that contains a small amount of benzyl alcohol, a common bacteriostatic agent. The benzyl alcohol limits the growth of bacteria within the water itself, which is why this reagent is preferred over plain sterile water when a solution may be accessed more than once over a period of days. It is a widely used general-purpose diluent in laboratory settings and is stocked as a matter of course in facilities that handle lyophilized compounds.

Why researchers keep it on hand

Almost every peptide in a research catalogue arrives as a dry powder for stability during shipping and storage. To move from a stored vial to material that can be measured, referenced, and studied, that powder has to be reconstituted, and the choice of diluent matters for the integrity of the sample. Because bacteriostatic water resists microbial growth, it is a practical companion reagent for a research program that works through its materials over time. Our peptide guide covers how lyophilized compounds are handled and characterized in more detail.

Quality and shipping

LYFE Science holds its catalogue to a consistent quality standard, and reagents are documented so you know exactly what you are receiving. We ship Canada-wide by Canada Post at a flat $25, with free shipping on orders over $150.
