Also known as: Bac Water, BAC Water, 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol Water
Bacteriostatic water is sterile (germ-free) water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol added. The benzyl alcohol stops bacteria from growing in vials that are used more than once. It is the standard liquid for mixing freeze-dried (powdered) peptides. They are then injected under the skin or into a muscle. Without it, mixed peptides would only be safe to use for hours, not weeks.

In plain English
Bacteriostatic Water is germ-free water used to turn powdered peptides into a liquid. A little added alcohol stops bacteria from growing, so a mixed vial lasts for weeks.
Bacteriostatic Water is sterile water with a little benzyl alcohol mixed in. Sterile means it has no germs. The alcohol does not kill bacteria, but it stops them from growing. Without it, a mixed peptide would only be good for hours, not weeks.
Good to know
Sold as a research supply. Full details: Shipping Policy.
Time in the Body
N/A (carrier liquid)
Common Dose
1–5 mL, based on the peptide and how strong you want the mix
How It Is Given
Drawn into a syringe, then slowly added to the peptide vial
How Often
Used as needed to mix peptides
The benzyl alcohol does not kill bacteria. It stops them from growing. So the same vial of mixed peptide can be safely used many times over 28+ days when kept in the fridge. The water itself is a sterile, pH-balanced (not too acidic) liquid that carries the peptide.
Notes
Slowly add bac water down the side of the peptide vial. Do not spray it right onto the freeze-dried powder. Gently swirl (do not shake) until it is fully dissolved. Once mixed, keep the vial in the fridge and use it within 28–30 days.

Peptides come as a dry powder. Labs add a liquid to turn that powder back into a solution, and bacteriostatic water is the standard choice. It has 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which stops bacteria from growing, so a mixed vial can be used again for weeks when kept in the fridge.
Both are germ-free. Plain sterile water has nothing in it to stop bacteria, so it does not keep once it is opened. Bacteriostatic water has 0.9% benzyl alcohol added, which keeps bacteria from growing each time a needle goes into the vial.
Keep unopened vials at room temperature. After the first use, keep the vial in the fridge and use it within 28 to 30 days. Replace it by the expiry date on the label.
Most orders pair it with alcohol prep pads and insulin syringes. Our free peptide calculator does the mixing math for lab records.
