Pfizer Bacteriostatic Water · 30ML

Pfizer Bacteriostatic Water for Injection USP is a sterile, non-pyrogenic aqueous diluent manufactured by Pfizer Inc., containing 0.9% (w/v) benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The product is supplied in 30 mL multi-dose vials and is widely used in laboratory and research settings as a reconstitution diluent for lyophilized peptide research compounds, biological reagents, and other research materials requiring a sterile aqueous solvent. The 0.9% benzyl alcohol preservative inhibits microbial growth in the vial after multiple punctures, allowing the same vial to be used across multiple reconstitution events within standard stability windows. The product is manufactured under USP and cGMP standards at Pfizer-operated facilities. Bacteriostatic water differs from sterile water for injection (SWFI) by the inclusion of the benzyl alcohol preservative, which extends the multi-use shelf life of the diluent vial. This product is supplied here strictly as a research-grade sterile diluent for laboratory reconstitution applications.
