BAC Water, more accurately described as Bacteriostatic Water, is a preserved aqueous solution commonly formulated with sterile or purified water and benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative.
Because BAC Water is a formulated solution rather than a single chemically defined peptide or small molecule, it does not have one overall CAS number, molecular formula, molecular weight, or amino-acid sequence.
The exact composition, preservative concentration, sterility specification, and lot-specific quality data should be confirmed from the product label and applicable Certificate of Analysis.
Research Applications
BAC Water may be used in controlled laboratory and analytical workflows involving:
- Aqueous sample preparation
- Research dilution procedures
- Compatible material preparation
- Laboratory solution handling
- Analytical formulation work
- General research solution preparation
Compatibility should always be determined according to the properties of the specific research material and applicable laboratory protocol.
Composition Information
A commonly referenced formulation contains:
- Water
- Benzyl Alcohol, typically 0.9% w/v
Exact formulation should be verified using product-specific documentation.
Analytical Identification
Relevant documentation may include:
- Water quality specification
- Benzyl alcohol concentration
- Sterility or microbiological information
- Lot or batch identification
- Certificate of Analysis
- Storage requirements
Since BAC Water is a formulated solution, documentation should focus on composition and quality specifications rather than peptide-style molecular data.
Specifications & Documentation
Lot-specific documentation should be reviewed for:
- Product identity
- Water specification
- Preservative concentration
- Sterility or microbiological specifications
- Analytical testing
- Lot or batch number
- Certificate of Analysis
- Storage conditions
Storage & Handling
Store according to the conditions specified on the product label and Certificate of Analysis. Keep the container properly sealed and protect the solution from contamination or unsuitable environmental conditions.
Handling should follow established laboratory procedures appropriate for preserved aqueous research solutions.
Research Use Only
BAC Water is supplied exclusively for laboratory research, analytical preparation, and scientific reference purposes.
