BAC Water questions

Where can I buy BAC water in Australia?

Peptides Collective sells BAC Water in sealed 3ml vials for A$8, dispatched tracked from Western Australia. It ships in the same parcel as peptide orders.

What should I check on a vial of bacteriostatic water?

Check for a sealed sterile vial, a stated benzyl alcohol concentration, a batch number and an expiry date. Our BAC Water vials list 0.9% benzyl alcohol.

What can I substitute for bacteriostatic water?

Sterile water without a preservative suits a single draw. Dilute acetic acid suits peptides that dissolve poorly in water. Without benzyl alcohol, a solution has no protection against contamination across repeated draws.

Where can I buy reconstitution water for peptides?

BAC Water is the usual reconstitution solvent for research peptides. Peptides Collective sells it in 3ml vials for A$8.

Can I use normal saline instead of bacteriostatic water?

Some peptides tolerate 0.9% sodium chloride and others precipitate in salt solutions. Check the peptide's published solubility before changing solvent.

Where is it shipped from?

Orders ship tracked from Western Australia. Delivery estimates by state are on the shipping page.

Does it ship with peptide orders?

Yes. Add it to the same cart and it ships in the same parcel as your peptides.
