Reconstitution Solution is a sterile, pyrogen-free aqueous laboratory solvent containing 0.9% (9 mg/mL) benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative (BAC Water) in purified water. Engineered specifically for reconstituting lyophilized research peptides, proteins, and synthetic reagent complexes, Reconstitution Solution prevents microbial contamination in multi-use reagent vials while maintaining liquid peptide solubility.
Price range: $8.00 through $18.99
Reconstitution Solution is a high-purity, sterile aqueous solvent formulated specifically for dissolving and preserving lyophilized laboratory research materials, synthetic peptides, and protein reference standards. Composed of purified, pyrogen-free water combined with 0.9% (9 mg/mL) USP-grade benzyl alcohol (C7H8O), Reconstitution Solution serves as an essential vehicle for benchtop assay preparations.
Batch-verified for strict sterility and analytical quality at Modern Aminos, Reconstitution Solution is supplied in two convenient laboratory formats:
Laboratories conducting multi-reagent sampling, high-throughput screening, and peptide solubility testing utilize Reconstitution Solution to reconstitute reference compounds across the site.

When evaluating research efficacy and published scientific literature for Reconstitution Solution and Bacteriostatic Preservatives:
To evaluate solvent choices, microbial preservation, and reagent stability, researchers compare Reconstitution Solution against alternative laboratory water formats available at Modern Aminos:
In laboratory research settings, Reconstitution Solution and Bacteriostatic Water are functionally and chemically identical. Both solvents consist of purified, pyrogen-free water containing 0.9% (9 mg/mL) benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. The primary difference lies in naming conventions: while “Bacteriostatic Water” is a generic clinical descriptor, “Reconstitution Solution” refers specifically to the analytical-grade solvent formulation packaged for reconstituting lyophilized research peptides and laboratory reference materials. Both products prevent microbial contamination in multi-use vials and maintain identical peptide solubilization parameters.
| Solvent / Reference | Chemical Composition | Preservative Presence | Primary Research Utility |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reconstitution Solution | Sterile Water + 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol | Yes (Bacteriostatic Preservative Included) | Specifically formulated for dissolving lyophilized research peptides and preserving multi-entry liquid reagent vials |
| Bacteriostatic Water | Sterile Water + 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol | Yes (Bacteriostatic Preservative Included) | Standard laboratory term for 0.9% benzyl alcohol aqueous vehicle; identical in function to Reconstitution Solution |
| SWI (USP) | 100% Purified Single-Use Water | No (Preservative-Free) | Single-use solubilization solvent; lacks bacteriostatic agents, leading to rapid bacterial growth if open vial is reused |
| Deionized / HPLC Grade Water | Ultra-Pure Purified H2O | No (Preservative-Free) | Analytical HPLC/LC-MS mobile phase solvent; non-sterile unsealed bulk containers unsuited for multi-use storage |
Yes, Modern Aminos is a highly trusted supplier of high-purity research chemicals and laboratory solvent vehicles. Every batch of Reconstitution Solution undergoes strict analytical testing to verify exact 0.9% benzyl alcohol concentration, complete sterility, pyrogen-free purity, and absence of heavy metals or particulate matter.
Reconstitution solution is a sterile, pyrogen-free liquid solvent containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol dissolved in purified water. It is designed specifically to dissolve lyophilized (freeze-dried) research compounds and peptides into stable liquid solutions while inhibiting bacterial growth during extended laboratory storage.
Reconstitution Solution and Bacteriostatic Water are chemically identical for laboratory purposes. Both contain 0.9% benzyl alcohol in sterile water to prevent microbial growth. Modern Aminos labels this solvent as Reconstitution Solution to clearly denote its intended laboratory role in reconstituting research peptides.
Benzyl alcohol serves as a bacteriostatic preservative. When a laboratory reagent vial is sampled multiple times, ambient microorganisms can enter the container. The 0.9% benzyl alcohol concentration prevents bacterial replication, allowing liquid reconstituted reagents to remain stable for up to 28 days under refrigeration.
Single-use sterile water contains no preservative. Once opened or entered with a laboratory instrument, any reconstituted solution made with plain sterile water must be used immediately or discarded, as bacteria can quickly proliferate. Reconstitution Solution contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol, allowing repeated multi-use sampling.
In a controlled laboratory environment, draw the calculated volume of Reconstitution Solution using a sterile laboratory transfer instrument and slowly introduce it down the inside glass wall of the lyophilized compound vial. Allow the liquid to absorb into the compound powder and gently swirl until fully dissolved; avoid vigorous shaking to protect compound tertiary structure.
Modern Aminos offers Reconstitution Solution in two standardized vial sizes: a 10ML aqueous solution in a 10R vial and a 30ML aqueous solution in a 30R vial. Both sizes feature sealed rubber stoppers and flip-off caps to preserve solution sterility.
Unopened vials of Reconstitution Solution should be stored at controlled room temperature (15°C to 25°C) protected from direct sunlight. Once lyophilized research compound is reconstituted, the combined liquid solution should be stored refrigerated (2°C to 8°C) and used within designated laboratory testing windows.
