I've been looking into making my own bac water for a while now and it feels like there's a
ton of fearmongering going on, so it's been really difficult to find any advice from someone who's actually done this. It's very odd to me that a group of people willing to buy realistically unknown peptides online are so against the idea of making their own bac water at home. I don't understand why they think it's fine to reconstitute peptides on their own, but suddenly mixing a very simple ratio of BA to sterile water is a step too far? It's...weird.
Anyway, my question is this: Do you happen to know if there's any real difference between sterile water for injection, USP sterile water, and sterile water for irrigation? And if standard benzyl alcohol USP in a sterile glass bottle would work?
Basically, most of the sites I've found selling sterile water for injection specifically require you to have a prescription or a medical license. But I can easily find all kinds of different sterile water on Amazon, for example, including one that says this:
- UFC Bio's ultra pure grade water is RNase/DNase/endotoxin free, sterile, 0.05um filtered and autoclaved to ensure premium quality. Each batch is tested for RNase/DNase/endotoxin activity.
It seems to me something like that should work, but again, it's incredibly difficult to get any clear answers. I will say, my risk tolerance for myself seems to be higher than a lot of other people's, but part of the problem is I also prepare peptides for my little sister and my girlfriend, so I want to make sure everything is as safe as possible.
Thanks for any clarification/advice you can offer! I'm also curious if you happen to know -- I know BAC water isn't actually common in Europe and most people just use sterile water for injection on its own, I'm just wondering how that works with a vial that has multiple doses? Like, even if you toss the water itself after only using it to reconstitute one peptide (I'm assuming that's what it means by single use, but again, I have no experience with this), the peptide vial itself is still multiple doses, so how does that work? Luckily when I first started all this, I bought a multi pack of bac water on Amazon, but I am down to my last bottle, so I need to figure something out in the next couple months.
