Care & handling
Treat it well and it keeps its promise.
Check the seal
Look at the cap and crimp before first use. If the seal is broken, the glass is cracked, or the liquid looks cloudy or has particles, set the vial aside and contact us.
After first puncture
Write the date on the label the first time the stopper is punctured, refrigerate as printed on the label, and throw the vial out 28 days later, even if some is left.
Watch the date
Every label carries a lot number and an expiry date. Don’t use a vial past its printed expiry, opened or not.
Keep it secure
Store vials out of reach of children and pets, and dispose of empty glass according to your local rules.

Questions
Good questions, straight answers.
So what is BAC water, exactly?
Bacteriostatic water is water with a little benzyl alcohol (0.9%) mixed in. The benzyl alcohol is a preservative that holds back bacterial growth, which is why one vial can be punctured more than once.
When can I buy it?
Soon. Reserve a pack and leave your email, and we’ll send one note when ordering opens.
How long is an opened vial good for?
28 days from the first puncture. Write the date on the label so you don’t have to remember it.
Fridge or cupboard?
Cupboard while it’s sealed, somewhere at room temperature and out of the sun. Fridge after it’s been opened, as the label says.
Can I see lab results?
Yes. Lot results are published with each release on our lot results page. Look for the lot number printed on your label.
Where do you ship from?
Arizona. Carriers, rates, and delivery times will be on the shipping page before launch.
Is it for people or pets?
No. It’s sold for research use only. It isn’t for human or veterinary use, and we don’t give medical or usage advice.
