What is Water For Injection (USP)?

USP water for injection is purified water that’s a nonpyrogenic, distilled water with a typical pH of 5.5.   Sterile water for injection USP is prepared from water that complies with drinking water regulations. The purifying process removes impurities using a blend of ion exchange, reverse osmosis, filtration to 0.2 micron, and UV treatment.Water for injection USP is a grade of water that meets the requirements of the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), an internationally-recognised standard whose specification guarantees a particular quality level. Other internationally-recognised standards include EP (European Pharmacopoeia), BP (British Pharmacopoeia), and JP (Japanese Pharmacopoeia). ReAgent also supplies EP water.At ReAgent, we carry out a validation of the purification process to ensure that the water produced meets with the requirements specified by the USP. We also test the purified water on an ongoing basis in order to ensure that the system is continuously producing water that meets the requirements of the USP.

USP Water For Injection Specifications

Grades of water differ slightly, but all water produced to USP standards is low in impurities, including heavy metals, nitrates, chlorides, and sulphates. It will also meet particular conductivity and pH specifications.USP water for injection has to comply with the specification as prescribed in the USP Monograph for the specific grade of water supplied.Sterile water for injection USP also meets a bacterial endotoxin specification. The equipment and procedures we use at ReAgent are designed to control microbial contamination and remove endotoxins from our source water. We also store and package the water accordingly.

Applications of USP Water For Injection

Different grades of water are suitable for different pharmaceutical purposes. The United States Pharmacopoeia states that water for injection USP can be used “as an excipient in the production of parenteral and other preparations where product endotoxin levels must be controlled and in other pharmaceutical applications, such as cleaning of certain equipment and parenteral product-contact components.”Water for injection USP can also be used:
  • In the processing, formulation and manufacture of pharmaceutical products
  • As active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs)
  • As analytical reagents
  • In certain cleaning applications
Please contact us to ensure that USP water for injection is suitable for your intended use. ReAgent also supplies USP purified water.It is important to note that neither USP water for injection nor USP purified water is sterile, and therefore are unsuitable for parenteral use. For parenteral use, sterile water for injection USP is required.

What Is The Shelf-life For USP WFI?

We investigated options available to extend the shelf life for the different grades of the USP water for injection that we produce. The shelf life for this type of water is currently 120 days.We now use a specialised treatment during the filling process. This has two benefits:
  1. The water is sterilised
  2. The packaging is also sterilised
Once the package is sealed, its contents and packaging are free from bacterial contamination.To ensure this process is failsafe, we sent a series of samples away for laboratory testing for microbial contamination (TVC). We have now tested samples up to four months old, and all samples have returned results below the USP WFI limit of 10 cfu/ 100ml.The current shelf life for both our USP and EP purified water is 120 days, and this will increase as we obtain more data.

USP Water for Injection FAQs

  • What are the standards and quality specifications for your USP grade water for injection (WFI)?

    You can find the specifications of our USP WFI here.
  • Is your non-sterile USP WFI suitable for the upstream manufacture of parenteral therapeutic products?

    Our water meets the specification for USP WFI water. It is essential that the end-user is satisfied that the water is suitable for their own application.
  • Are the containers used for WFI sterilised prior to use?

    The containers are not pre-sterilised, but ozone is added to the purified water during the filling process. This sterilises both the water and the packaging.

    We manufacture one to two weeks prior to dispatch for regular orders. Ad hoc orders may be packed to order.
  • What is the shelf life of your USP water for injection?

    The current shelf life of our USP WFI is two months. We are carrying out storage trials and will look to extend the shelf life once we have the results of this trial.

    The water will be stable once packed and will be suitable for use up to the shelf life.
  • What are the shipping costs for a 1000L container of water for injection?

    Shipping costs will depend on your location. Please contact our sales team on 0800 9555 798 for a quote.

    No, the water that we produce is not sold for use in the manufacture of parenteral therapeutic products.
  • Can I arrange a call to discuss the potential supply and other details regarding USP WFI?
