Hospira Bacteriostatic Water 30mL — USP-Grade Multi-Dose Solvent
Hospira Bacteriostatic Water is USP-grade sterile water preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol, produced by Pfizer’s Hospira division under full pharmaceutical manufacturing standards. It is the recognized benchmark solvent for multi-dose reconstitution of lyophilized peptide research material, with a documented manufacturing chain that unbranded generic alternatives cannot match.
Why Bacteriostatic Water
Lyophilized peptides require reconstitution into an aqueous solvent before use in research protocols. The 0.9% benzyl alcohol preservative provides bacteriostatic activity across repeated septum punctures, supporting the multi-dose workflows that define longer-timeline studies. Sterile water for injection (SWFI) lacks this preservative and is labeled single-use — any withdrawal after the first puncture risks contamination. For research compounds reconstituted for multi-week protocols, bacteriostatic water is the standard.
Usage Guidelines
- Swab the vial septum with alcohol before each withdrawal
- Use within 28 days of first puncture (standard multi-dose window)
- Store at room temperature before opening; refrigerate after first use
- Compatible with the full range of lyophilized research peptides
