BAC Water
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) is sterile water for injection containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol (CAS 100-51-6) as a bacteriostatic preservative, conforming to USP specifications. With CAS number 7013-45-8, BAC Water is a standard laboratory diluent used for reconstituting lyophilized research compounds, preparing stock solutions, and serving as a vehicle control in experimental protocols. BAC Water's benzyl alcohol content inhibits microbial growth, permitting multiple entries into a single vial under aseptic technique while maintaining sterility for the labeled period. This product is supplied as a laboratory consumable for research reconstitution purposes only. It is not intended for unauthorized human or veterinary use, and users should follow institutional biosafety and handling guidelines.

BAC Water — Research Reference
Sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol — the standard diluent that keeps reconstituted research peptides usable for weeks.
What is BAC Water?
Bacteriostatic water for injection (BAC water) is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative — the essential companion to every lyophilised peptide. Its key practical benefit: the preservative extends the usable life of a reconstituted peptide solution under refrigeration from roughly 24 hours (plain sterile water) to several weeks, so a single vial stretches across an entire experiment series. Every laboratory working with lyophilised peptides should keep BAC water on hand. Noxa Labs supplies it as a research reference diluent for in vitro work only. Note: this compound is supplied strictly as an analytical reference material for in vitro research by qualified professionals. It is not a pharmaceutical product, supplement, or substance for human or animal use.
Mechanism in research literature
The 0.9% benzyl alcohol concentration is bacteriostatic — it prevents bacterial growth without killing existing organisms, which is exactly what routine peptide research needs when adding diluent to a sterile lyophilised vial held in the fridge. The concentration is calibrated: higher would risk peptide-modification reactions; lower would risk microbial growth across the typical 4-week reconstituted-storage window.
Documented research applications
BAC water is the diluent for essentially every peptide product Noxa Labs supplies. Standard volume per vial is 1–3 mL depending on the working concentration desired.
Reconstitution
No reconstitution required — BAC water is the diluent itself.
Storage & stability
Store BAC water at room temperature, away from direct light. Discard any opened vial after 28 days of use per standard pharmacy guidance.
