What is SNAP-8?
SNAP-8 is an eight-residue elongation of the hexapeptide argireline, designed as a mimetic of the N-terminal end of SNAP-25 in the SNARE complex. It is studied topically for its interaction with SNARE assembly rather than for any systemic activity. Pepstral supplies it as a lyophilized powder for in-vitro laboratory research only.
What is SNAP-8 studied for?
- SNARE complex assembly assays
- Topical formulation research
- Peptide mimetic comparisons
- Dermatological signalling studies
All applications above are in-vitro or preclinical research contexts. SNAP-8 is sold for laboratory research only and is not for human or animal use.
What does the certificate for lot SNA-2609-X show?
Every lot of SNAP-8 is tested by an independent US laboratory before it is listed. The report for lot SNA-2609-X is in the COA library and the lot number printed on the vial matches it. The current results:
| Test | Method | Lot SNA-2609-X result |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | LC-MS | Matches the calculated mass for the sequence |
| Purity | HPLC-UV, 220 nm | 99.0% |
| Net peptide content | Amino acid analysis | Stated per vial on the certificate |
| Endotoxin | LAL, chromogenic | < 0.5 EU/mg |
| Sterility | USP <71> | Pass |
How is SNAP-8 handled and stored?
Sealed vials are stored at -20°C away from light and keep for 24 months. To reconstitute, add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial and swirl until clear; never shake. Once in solution, keep at 2 to 8°C and use within the 28-day window on the certificate. The reconstitution guide covers volumes and syringe units and the concentration table gives the numbers for this vial.
Frequently asked questions
What does SNAP-8 mimic?
The N-terminal region of SNAP-25, one of the three proteins in the SNARE complex that drives vesicle fusion.
How does it relate to argireline?
SNAP-8 is a longer version of the same mimetic idea — eight residues against argireline's six.
Is SNAP-8 for human use?
No. Every product on this site is sold for in-vitro laboratory research only and is not for human or animal consumption, diagnostic or therapeutic use.
