Looking for bacteriostatic water in Egypt? Strata currently lists a 2ml laboratory research vial. The earlier 10ml listing is no longer available. Check the product page for current price and stock.

2ml and 10ml are different vial sizes

The current product is 2ml, not 10ml. If your laboratory requires a different volume, do not assume this is the same item as the previous listing. Confirm your protocol and the product label before ordering.

What is bacteriostatic water?

Bacteriostatic water contains a preservative intended to inhibit bacterial growth. It is different from preservative-free sterile water and from saline. These descriptions are not interchangeable. Check the labelled composition and your laboratory's compatibility requirements.

What should a laboratory check?

  • The labelled volume and preservative composition.
  • The manufacturer, lot identifier, expiry date and storage instructions.
  • Whether the documentation covers the actual material supplied.
  • Whether the material is suitable for the laboratory protocol. Do not infer suitability from a peptide purity certificate.

A peptide COA does not establish water quality or sterility. Ask for water-specific documentation if your laboratory requires it.

What bacteriostatic water is used for

It is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative, used in laboratory work to reconstitute lyophilised powders. The preservative is what makes it different from plain sterile water once a vial has been opened more than once.

What we can and cannot tell you about it

We publish no analytical or sterility report for the water, because we do not hold one. Anyone can show you a peptide certificate and imply it covers the diluent; it does not. Ask for the documentation that matches the product in front of you.

How to store it

Follow the label and your laboratory protocol. Do not apply a single shelf-life rule across different diluents and compounds.

Common questions

How much does bacteriostatic water cost in Egypt?

EGP 400 for a 2ml vial, delivered free across Egypt in three to five working days.

Is this 10ml or 2ml?

The current pack size is 2ml. The 10ml pack is not available, and the page for the old listing redirects here so nobody lands on a dead product.

Is bacteriostatic water the same as sterile water?

No. It contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative, which is why it is used where a reconstituted vial will be entered more than once.

Is it for human use?

No. It is supplied as laboratory research material, for research use only.
