Overview
Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water) is a sterile aqueous solution containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, formulated to inhibit bacterial growth and maintain solution stability during repeated laboratory use. It is commonly applied as a research-grade diluent for the reconstitution of lyophilized compounds, proteins, and other materials in controlled experimental settings.
Research Context
In laboratory environments, BAC Water provides a sterile, isotonic medium designed to minimize microbial contamination while remaining chemically compatible with most water-soluble research compounds. The addition of benzyl alcohol supports extended multi-use handling and storage, making it a reliable tool for studies requiring precision, sterility, and reproducibility.
Research Relevance
Researchers utilize BAC Water to prepare accurate dilutions, preserve compound stability, and ensure experimental consistency across biochemical and pharmaceutical research applications. Its combination of sterility, compatibility, and stability makes it a standard laboratory resource.
