Sketchy BAC water?

I recently purchased some bacteriostatic water from an online retailer. It's a US-based company that's been around for a while, which made me feel better about the purchase. Still, I'm a bit concerned about the actual contents of the vial. I can easily test the pH level, but that doesn't tell me everything. Does anyone know of any other tests I can perform to determine the purity of the water without spending a fortune on lab analysis? I got two vials and would sacrifice one.
 
Just stop buying mystery BAC and the problem is solved. Or you can burn a few bills getting it tested and HOPE the next bottle is the same stuff. I'd rather just pay a little more for the reliable stuff.
 
I actually managed to find the name brand online, and I've placed an order. If all goes well with this supplier, I'll stock up for the long haul. I bought the other stuff as a backup, and to see if it's a legit source for others to use. Spending $300 on a test isn't feasible for me right now, but it might be worth it if I could then buy a huge supply. Maybe I can convince one of the science peeps I know to let me use their lab equipment.
 
I'm not sure where you all are finding Hospira BAC. I placed an order back in June, they took the money, and still no shipment. I've emailed them like 3 times and they can't even tell me when it will ship. This is why people are trying other sources...
 
I ordered from them too. They charged my card and then cancelled. No refund. Filed a dispute and got my money back the next day. You might need to do the same thing.
 
You can test for things like alcohol content, type of alcohol, sterility, and pH. But there are so many other contaminants that can show up in BAC water. It’s apparently easier to make good peptides than it is to make good BAC water! That's why so many people who buy generic GLP-1 meds only use Hospira BAC.
 
I had a hard time finding good BAC, but I finally got a vial. It was almost $20 but hopefully I only need to buy this once. Now, I'm just waiting for that Canadian site to restock.

It's really smart that you're checking. Some people have had some bad reactions to contaminated stuff. I read about one guy who got a really bad reaction from just a tiny dose of some peptide he was trying.

That's a great way to put it. Honestly, the risk of contaminants is way higher than people realize. Sterility is paramount.
 
easy to get real bac for like a dollar or less per vial so why risk a reconstituted one getting spoiled over that tiny amount. thought about making my own benzyl alcohol — i make methanol and ethanol a couple times a year anyway — but turns out peptides are easier to make than ba.
 
Found this info online about storing opened BAC water: keep it at 36-46°F (never freeze, messes with the vial). It's got benzyl alcohol which slows bacteria but doesn't keep it sterile forever. Don't risk anything that's sat for years.
 
my state makes it confusing too. are you saying buying the stack as one vial isn't the move? should each peptide be separate for dosing accuracy?
 
had to buy it once from a peptide site 'cause no vendors had it. didn't really do much so i switched to something else. paid about 160 quid for a 10mg vial though—same as what i pay for a kit of 60mg tirz!
 
i've got 5HTP ready (Now brand, 50mg). testing other stuff first tho so i don't mix effects. just watch serotonin syndrome if she's on meds for that already.
