Reconstitution Solution (30 mL)

A lab diluent, not a research compound, so no evidence grade applies.

Strengths: 30 mL vial
Molecule: Sterile solution with 0.9% benzyl alcohol (base liquid not stated)

Origin

The catalog describes it as a sterile 30 mL laboratory diluent containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol. The base liquid (water, saline or other) is not stated.

How it works

Benzyl alcohol at 0.9% is a bacteriostatic preservative: it slows bacterial growth, so the solution is supplied in a multi-dose vial. This is the same preservative level as bacteriostatic water.

What the research shows

A laboratory diluent, not a research compound, so there is no research literature to summarize. Its stated composition matches the preservative level of bacteriostatic water, a standard pharmaceutical diluent.

Safety findings

Benzyl alcohol is linked to fatal toxicity in newborns ('gasping syndrome'), and approved benzyl alcohol-preserved diluents carry label warnings about this and about hemolysis (red-cell damage); benzyl alcohol is also incompatible with some substances. The catalog states no shelf life after opening.

Regulatory status

Not an FDA-labeled product as sold: no NDC or USP claim is listed. Sold for laboratory research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Catalog notes

A 30 mL vial; no certificate or SDS is published yet. The base liquid, USP grade, NDC, pH and endotoxin result are not listed, and the spec table lists −20 °C storage. It has the same preservative level as Bacteriostatic Water.
