Bacteriostatic Water 3mL — Full Product Breakdown
Sterile bacteriostatic water — 3 mL vial for small-volume reconstitution.
Bacteriostatic Water for Injection (BWFI) is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The 3 mL vial is ideal for single-peptide reconstitution where a higher per-mL concentration is desired, and it minimizes waste on shorter research cycles.
What it is
USP-grade sterile water + 0.9% benzyl alcohol in a rubber-stoppered borosilicate vial, designed specifically for reconstituting lyophilized research peptides.
What it does
Dissolves lyophilized peptide powder into a stable aqueous solution while the benzyl alcohol suppresses bacterial growth, allowing multi-dose access from the same vial across several days of research.
Benefits
- ›Inhibits bacterial growth — safe multi-puncture use for up to ~28 days once opened
- ›Compact 3 mL format ideal for small peptide vials (2 mg–5 mg)
- ›Produces higher concentration per mL for precise low-volume dosing
- ›Sterile, pyrogen-free — won't denature peptides
- ›Wide compatibility with BPC-157, TB-500, Semax, MOTS-c, and most research peptides

How to use
Swab the rubber stopper with isopropyl alcohol. Draw the desired volume with a sterile syringe and slowly inject down the inner wall of the peptide vial. Gently swirl — do NOT shake. Use within 28 days of first puncture when stored refrigerated.
Storage
Sealed: room temperature, away from light. After opening: refrigerate at 2–8 °C and discard after 28 days.
Safety
- •For laboratory research only — not for human or animal injection
- •Do not use if the solution is cloudy or the seal is compromised
- •Benzyl alcohol can interact with certain sensitive proteins — verify peptide compatibility
