Ancillary and Lab Supplies
Bacteriostatic water, consumables and handling essentials.
Every peptide study depends on the unglamorous parts: a suitable diluent, clean technique, appropriate storage and reliable consumables. SkyCorPeps keeps a professional ancillary range for this purpose, including bacteriostatic water, peptide pen hardware and cartridges, together with the supplies laboratories ask for most often. These items support the handling of reference materials and are themselves supplied for laboratory use only. Prices are in South African rand, courier delivery is R250 nationwide and free on orders over R3,000, and orders placed before 11:00 SAST are processed the same working day from local stock. Research Use Only applies across the range: not for human consumption or clinical use. If you are unsure which diluent or consumable suits your study, the Lab Desk can describe what is held locally.
What the research covers
- Diluent selection and its effect on peptide solubility, pH and short-term stability in laboratory preparation.
- Reconstitution technique, sterile handling and contamination control practices used across analytical and cell-culture workflows in routine bench work.
- Storage conditions for lyophilised and reconstituted material, including temperature sensitivity and freeze-thaw effects on peptide integrity.
- Consumable compatibility, including syringe, filter and container materials chosen to minimise peptide adsorption losses in assays.

Common questions
What is bacteriostatic water used for in the laboratory?
Bacteriostatic water contains a small amount of benzyl alcohol that inhibits microbial growth, making it a common choice for reconstituting reference materials in multi-use laboratory settings. It is not suitable for every assay, since the preservative can interfere with certain cell-based work. Sterile water or a buffered diluent may be preferred depending on your study design.
Do peptide pens and cartridges have a human use application?
No. Pen hardware and cartridges in this catalogue are supplied as laboratory components for research workflows only. They are not offered for human or veterinary use, and we provide no administration guidance of any kind. Any laboratory use should follow your institution's procedures and applicable South African regulations.
What is the minimum order for free delivery?
Nationwide courier is R250, and delivery is free on orders over R3,000. Orders placed before 11:00 SAST on a working day are usually processed the same day, with tracking issued on dispatch. Main centres typically receive delivery within one to three working days, and outlying areas may take slightly longer.
