Peptide Research Supplies
Essential supplies for peptide research. Our bacteriostatic water and reconstitution solutions are quality controlled and sterile, perfect for preparing lyophilized peptides for laboratory use.
Bacteriostatic water is available in 10ml and 30ml vials. Acetic acid 0.6% is recommended for certain peptides requiring acidic reconstitution conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is bacteriostatic water used for?▼
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative. It's used to reconstitute lyophilized peptides for research, allowing multiple uses from a single vial.
When should I use acetic acid instead of bacteriostatic water?▼
Acetic acid 0.6% is recommended for reconstituting certain peptides that are more soluble in slightly acidic solutions, particularly some GLP-1 analogues. Check peptide-specific reconstitution guidelines.
How should reconstituted peptides be stored?▼
Reconstituted peptides should be stored refrigerated at 2-8°C and typically used within 4-6 weeks. Never freeze reconstituted peptide solutions as this can cause degradation.
