BAC water frozen

[Chrissven]

Hello, can someone help me? If I order my peptide from China and order BAC water, is it bad for the water if it freezes at -17 degrees?

Maybe but I haven’t seen any testing on that

From gemini but you should verify with other sources too:
Yes. Freezing precipitates the benzyl alcohol preservative, which reduces its antimicrobial effectiveness and can lead to bacterial growth upon thawing. Additionally, ice expansion often creates microscopic cracks in the glass vial or dislodges the rubber stopper, compromising the sterile seal. Discard the vial.

@byefatlicia maybe you can give some input here?

Thanks for the detailed description. I wanted to place an order for NAD+ etc. and also order BAC water. But I'll wait until the temperatures are warmer. Thanks for your help.

For Hospira BAC "Store at 20 to 25°C (68 to 77°F). [See USP Controlled Room Temperature.]" So yeah, I wouldn't use it if it's below or higher than that.
