The Essential Laboratory Solvent for Precision and Purity
PHX Labs’ USP-grade acetic acid is the gold standard for peptide researchers and biohackers who demand uncompromising quality and safety in every vial. Trusted by scientists, athletes, and longevity enthusiasts, our USP-grade acetic acid is the ideal solvent for peptide reconstitution and advanced laboratory applications.
What is Acetic Acid?
Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) is a simple carboxylic acid, most commonly recognized as the main component of vinegar (in diluted form). In peptide science, acetic acid plays a crucial role as a solvent for reconstituting lyophilized peptides, ensuring accurate dosing and optimal peptide stability.
Key Features:
- USP-Grade Purity: 99.7% pure, suitable for laboratory and research applications
- Versatile Solvent: Ideal for peptide reconstitution, buffer preparation, and pH adjustment
- Consistent & Reliable: Manufactured and packaged under strict quality controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency
Why Choose PHX Labs’ USP-grade acetic acid?
At PHX Labs, we’re committed to providing research professionals and advanced users with the highest standards of quality and transparency:
- Third-Party Lab Tested: Each lot is independently tested for purity and contaminants, with Certificates of Analysis available for your peace of mind.
- Secure, Sterile Packaging: Delivered in tamper-evident, chemical-resistant vials to maintain integrity and safety.
- Exact Concentration: Clearly labeled and measured to ensure precise dilution and mixing in your research protocols.
- Education-First Approach: We offer guidance and resources to help you safely and effectively use our solvents in your laboratory work.
Typical Applications
- Peptide Reconstitution: Acetic acid is commonly used to solubilize and stabilize certain peptides that are difficult to dissolve in water alone, especially those with hydrophobic or charged amino acid residues.
- Buffer Preparation: Used for adjusting pH and preparing acetate buffers in biochemical assays.
- Sterilization and Cleaning: Effective for cleaning glassware and laboratory surfaces (when properly diluted).
Who Uses Acetic Acid?
- Peptide Researchers: For precise reconstitution and formulation of experimental compounds
- Biohackers & Athletes: Seeking professional-grade solvents for advanced self-experimentation (research use only)
- Laboratory Professionals: For routine buffer preparation and cleaning protocols
Safety & Compliance
- For Research Use Only: Not for human or veterinary consumption. Always handle with appropriate personal protective equipment and in a well-ventilated laboratory environment.
- Storage: Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and incompatible materials.
- Handling: Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Directions for Use
- Contents: 1 vial containing 99.7% USP-Grade Acetic Acid
- Usage: Follow your laboratory’s standard operating procedures for dilution and peptide reconstitution. For most peptide applications, a small amount of acetic acid is used to dissolve the peptide before dilution with bacteriostatic or sterile water.

Step-by-Step Reconstitution Process:
Preparation:
- Wash your hands thoroughly and sanitize your workspace.
- Gather all necessary supplies before starting the reconstitution process.
Sanitize:
- Use an alcohol swab to clean the rubber stopper on the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic or sterile water vial.
Draw the Diluent:
- Using a syringe, draw the required amount of bacteriostatic or sterile water. For most peptides, this is between 1-2 ml, depending on personal preference for dosing precision.
Inject the Diluent:
- Insert the needle into the peptide vial at an angle to avoid creating bubbles.
- Slowly inject the water into the vial, allowing it to run down the side of the vial. This helps minimize foaming and ensures the peptide dissolves evenly.
Dissolve the Peptide:
- Gently swirl the vial to mix the peptide with the water. Do not shake the vial, as this can damage the peptide structure.
Storage:
- Store the reconstituted peptide in the refrigerator. Most peptides remain stable for several weeks when refrigerated.
- Label the vial with the date of reconstitution for tracking purposes.
General Supplies Needed:
- Peptide Vial: Ensure the Insulin Syringe 1ml vial is sealed and stored properly before use.
- Bacteriostatic Water or Sterile Water: Typically used for reconstitution, depending on the peptide.
- Alcohol Swabs: For sanitizing the vial tops and injection sites.
- Syringe and Needle: Typically a 1 ml syringe with a 29-31 gauge needle.
- Insulin Syringe: For precise dosing after reconstitution.
Tips for Accurate Dosing:
- Measurement: Use an insulin syringe for precise dosing. Know the concentration of your peptide solution (e.g., if 10 mg of peptide is reconstituted with 2 ml of water, each 0.1 ml contains 500 mcg).
- Injection Method: Choose between subcutaneous (SubQ) or intramuscular (IM) administration based on your goals and comfort level.
Safety and Consultation:
- Consultation: Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting peptide therapy.
- Hygiene: Maintain strict hygiene throughout the process to prevent contamination and infection.
