Bacteriostatic Water 10mL
BAC 10mL
Bacteriostatic Water is sterile, non-pyrogenic water containing a small amount of benzyl alcohol used as a preservative to inhibit microbial growth. In laboratory environments, bacteriostatic water is commonly used as a diluent for reconstitution of lyophilized research compounds. Its preservative properties allow repeated use within controlled laboratory settings when preparing sterile experimental solutions.
