- GuideWhat is BAC Water?
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water mixed with 0.9% benzyl alcohol. The alcohol prevents bacterial growth, which is why the same vial can be used across multi
Read - GuideHow peptide reconstitution works
Peptides are shipped as a freeze dried powder. To use them, you add BAC water to the vial, which dissolves the powder into a stable solution you can draw from.
Read - GuideHow to read a peptide vial label
A peptide vial label shows: the peptide name, the strength (usually in mg), a lot number, and sometimes an expiration for the powder. The strength is the total
Read - GuideHow to use an insulin syringe
Insulin syringes are marked in units on the U 100 scale: 100 units = 1 mL. A 1 mL insulin syringe has 100 markings; a 0.5 mL has 50; a 0.3 mL has 30 (often with
Read - GuideWhat syringe units mean
On a U 100 insulin syringe, one "unit" = 0.01 mL. So 10 units = 0.1 mL, 25 units = 0.25 mL, and so on. When our planner tells you to draw "10 units", it means t
