SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION

BAC Water 3 ML – Lab Research Supply is Bacteriostatic Water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol (commonly abbreviated as BAC Water), supplied as a laboratory-grade sterile aqueous diluent. Classified as a research chemical and sterile solvent, it is widely utilized to support peptide research workflows, including peptide reconstitution and in‑vitro studies. Its consistent composition and preservative system make it valuable for scientific research where controlled solubilization and sample integrity are critical.

SECTION 2: RESEARCH APPLICATIONS

• Investigated in studies examining peptide reconstitution parameters, solubility profiling, and concentration-dependent stability.
• Research has explored its role in maintaining sample integrity for analytical method development (HPLC/LC-MS) in peptide research.
• In‑vitro studies have demonstrated utility as a sterile diluent for assay preparation, calibration standards, and reference materials.
• Animal model research suggests suitability for controlled formulation of test articles where bacteriostatic conditions are required in laboratory settings.
• Laboratory investigations focus on effects of benzyl alcohol on microbial suppression, storage stability, and protein/peptide compatibility.
• Used in scientific research for buffer pre-dilution, vialing practices, and sterile technique training in controlled environments.

SECTION 4: QUALITY ASSURANCE

Produced under controlled, GMP-aligned laboratory standards with aseptic processing. Each lot is sterile-filtered (0.22 μm), with benzyl alcohol content verified by HPLC and identity confirmed by GC/MS as applicable. Bioburden and endotoxin testing (LAL) performed on a lot basis. Certificate of Analysis (CoA) available for traceability, specifications, and test results. Batch-level documentation and retention samples maintained for quality verification.

SECTION 5: STORAGE & HANDLING

Store at 2–25°C, protected from light. Do not freeze. Stability is maintained when stored as directed until the lot-specific expiration date (see CoA/label). For peptide research, determine reconstitution volumes empirically; add slowly and mix gently to minimize denaturation. Employ aseptic technique; disinfect vial septum before each access. Discard if discoloration, particulates, or compromised sterility are observed.
