Overview

BAC Water (30 mL) is the same sterile bacteriostatic water formulation as NL H₂O, supplied in a larger 30 mL multi-dose vial. It contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative, which inhibits bacterial growth and allows repeated puncture with proper aseptic technique — unlike single-use sterile water for injection (SWFI). The larger volume is suited to high-throughput laboratory environments or simultaneous reconstitution of multiple lyophilized peptide compounds.

Key Facts

  • 0.9% benzyl alcohol functions as a bacteriostatic (growth-inhibiting) preservative
  • Multi-dose use is possible due to the preservative; SWFI is single-use only
  • Identical formulation to the 3 mL NL H₂O vial — larger volume for laboratory convenience
  • USP-grade benzyl alcohol has a well-documented pharmacopoeial safety profile
  • Standard diluent for lyophilized peptide reconstitution in research settings
  • pH buffered to maintain peptide stability upon reconstitution
  • Not for intravenous use; intended for laboratory reconstitution of research compounds only
