Acetic Acid Water (10mL): 0.6% Diluent for Acid-Stable Research Peptides
Acetic acid water is sterile water with 0.6% acetic acid, a mildly acidic diluent (around pH 3) used for the small group of research compounds that dissolve poorly or lose activity in neutral bacteriostatic water. The main one is IGF-1 LR3, which is supplied and studied in acetic acid because the growth factor aggregates at neutral pH. Some researchers also use it for large or hydrophobic peptides that resist dissolving. Searched as acetic acid water australia, acetic acid for peptides, 0.6% acetic acid and igf-1 lr3 diluent.
Pure Peptides Australia holds acetic acid water in Sydney stock as a 10mL sterile-filled vial. Orders confirmed before 12pm AEST on a business day are dispatched the same day with tracked delivery Australia-wide.

When to use it, and when not to
Use acetic acid water only where a compound page specifies it. IGF-1 LR3 is the clear case. For nearly every other peptide, including Retatrutide, BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu and the growth hormone secretagogues, bacteriostatic water is the diluent, because acetic acid has no preservative and its low pH is unnecessary. The two are not interchangeable: reconstituting an ordinary peptide in acid gains nothing and loses the 28-day bacteriostatic protection.

Reconstituting IGF-1 LR3 with acetic acid water
1mL into a 1mg vial gives 1mg/mL
Swab both septa. Draw 1mL of acetic acid water and run it slowly down the inside wall of the IGF-1 LR3 vial. Let stand and tilt gently until clear; do not shake. The solution is 1mg/mL, so 20mcg is 2 units on a U-100 syringe and 50mcg is 5 units. Refrigerate at 2 to 8°C and use within 14 days, or freeze single-use aliquots. Dilute an aliquot into bacteriostatic water at the point of use if a neutral vehicle is required.
| Vial | Acetic acid water added | Concentration | 20mcg on a U-100 syringe |
| IGF-1 LR3 1mg | 1mL | 1mg/mL | 2 units |
| IGF-1 LR3 1mg | 2mL | 500mcg/mL | 4 units |

Acetic Acid Water FAQ
What is acetic acid water?
Sterile water with 0.6% acetic acid, a mildly acidic diluent for research compounds that aggregate or lose activity at neutral pH. IGF-1 LR3 is the main one.
Acetic acid water vs bacteriostatic water?
Bacteriostatic water is neutral, has a preservative, and suits nearly every peptide for 28 days of draws. Acetic acid water is acidic, has no preservative, and is used only where a compound specifies it. They are not interchangeable.
Which peptides need acetic acid water?
IGF-1 LR3 and, occasionally, other growth-factor peptides or very hydrophobic compounds that will not dissolve in neutral water. Check the compound page; if it does not say acetic acid, use bacteriostatic.
How do you reconstitute IGF-1 LR3 with it?
Add 1mL slowly down the inside wall of the 1mg vial, let stand until clear, never shake. That gives 1mg/mL, so 20mcg is 2 units on a U-100 syringe. Refrigerate and use within 14 days, or freeze aliquots.
How long does it last once opened?
About 7 days refrigerated. It has no preservative, so it is not a multi-week vial like bacteriostatic water.
Can I make my own?
Sterile 0.6% acetic acid needs filtration and aseptic filling; household vinegar is not sterile and its concentration is wrong. A sealed sterile-filled vial removes both problems for $19.99.
Where can I buy acetic acid water in Australia?
From this page. Check out with card, PayID, Osko or bank transfer and the vial leaves Sydney the same business day when payment clears before 12pm AEST, tracked to any Australian address.
What does acetic acid water cost in Australia?
$19.99 for the 10mL vial. No surcharge on PayID, Osko or bank transfer.
