How To Use It

The 0.9% benzyl alcohol content acts as a bacteriostatic agent, inhibiting bacterial growth each time the vial septum is punctured. This is what distinguishes it from plain sterile water, which is sterile only until first use and is not suitable for a multi-dose vial.

To reconstitute a lyophilised peptide, the desired volume is drawn into a sterile syringe and injected slowly against the inside wall of the peptide vial, allowing the powder to dissolve without vigorous shaking. Once reconstituted, peptides mixed with bacteriostatic water should be stored refrigerated and used within the timeframe specified for that specific peptide.
