Vitalytes Bacteriostatic Water 10ml is a sterile diluent formulated with 0.9% benzyl alcohol (9mg/ml). The benzyl alcohol suppresses bacterial growth across repeated withdrawals from a single vial.
Laboratory teams select Vitalytes Bacteriostatic Water 10ml for multi-use reconstitution in controlled research settings. Each 10ml vial holds a uniform benzyl alcohol concentration for consistent laboratory results.
The added preservative allows the multi dose vial to be used multiple times while remaining suitable for use for up to 28 days after the first puncture when handled according to proper sterile technique.
It is commonly used for:
-
Peptide Reconstitution: Dissolving freeze dried peptides and other compounds into a sterile injectable solution.
-
Hormone Therapy Preparation: Diluting medications used in treatments such as GLP-1 therapies and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) that require multiple doses.
-
Medication Reconstitution: Mixing powdered or highly concentrated medications into a liquid form before administration.
-
Laboratory and Clinical Use: Preparing medications that require sterile dilution for research or clinical applications.
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml Composition and Purity
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml contains two components, high-purity sterile water and 0.9% benzyl alcohol. The benzyl alcohol functions as the bacteriostatic preservative inside the vial.
Non-pyrogenic processing removes fever-inducing contaminants from the solution. The formulation measures a pH near 5.7, within a 4.5 to 7.0 range. High-purity water forms the base of every 10ml vial.
Vitalytes Bacteriostatic Water 10ml Vial and Seal Construction
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml ships in a borosilicate glass vial. Borosilicate glass resists thermal shock and chemical interaction, protecting solution purity in the laboratory.
A bromobutyl rubber stopper seals each vial and reseals cleanly after each entry, reducing contamination risk. A tamper-evident aluminium flip-off cap confirms the vial stays unopened before use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is
Vitalytes Bacteriostatic Water 10ml?
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml is a sterile, non-pyrogenic diluent containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The preservative permits repeated withdrawals from one 10ml vial.
What is the difference between bacteriostatic water and sterile water?
Bacteriostatic water contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which permits multiple withdrawals from one vial. Sterile water contains no preservative, so laboratories treat it as single-use and discard it after one entry.
How long does Bacteriostatic Water 10ml last after opening?
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml lasts up to 28 days after the first entry. Discard the vial after 28 days because preservative protection declines past that point.
Why does Bacteriostatic Water 10ml contain benzyl alcohol?
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml contains benzyl alcohol because the compound inhibits bacterial growth inside the vial. The 0.9% concentration supports repeated entries under sterile technique.
Is Bacteriostatic Water 10ml non-pyrogenic?
Yes, Bacteriostatic Water 10ml is non-pyrogenic. The manufacturing process removes pyrogens that trigger fever responses.
What vial holds Bacteriostatic Water 10ml?
Bacteriostatic Water 10ml sits in a borosilicate glass vial. Borosilicate glass delivers strong resistance to thermal shock and chemical reaction.
