Snap-8 10mg — Research Peptide Canada

Sign in for priceSold out

Snap-8 (acetyl octapeptide-3) is an eight-amino-acid extension of Argireline, studied for competitive inhibition of SNARE complex assembly and the resulting reduction in catecholamine vesicle docking.

About Snap-8 10mg

Snap-8 mimics the N-terminal region of SNAP-25, the SNARE protein that botulinum toxin cleaves. Rather than cutting the protein, it competes for a position in the ternary SNARE complex, which destabilises vesicle fusion. That competitive, reversible mechanism is why the peptide is studied as a topical research analogue for neuromuscular signalling work. The two additional residues relative to Argireline are reported to increase affinity for the complex. This is a cosmetic-chemistry research material, used at low concentration in formulation and cell-culture studies.

Storing and handling Snap-8 10mg

Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C in a dry, dark environment. Reconstitute in bacteriostatic water. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for shipping and short-term storage.

Snap-8 10mg questions

Are research peptides like Snap-8 10mg legal in Canada?

Snap-8 10mg is supplied here strictly as a reference material for in vitro laboratory research. For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use. Canadian law turns on what a substance is represented and supplied for, which is why that restriction is on the label, the invoice and every page of this site. The full framework, and what a research-use designation does and does not change, is set out on our legality page.

Is Snap-8 10mg shipped from within Canada?

Yes. Every Snap-8 10mg order leaves British Columbia, Canada and travels entirely within the country. Orders placed before 2:00 PM Pacific on a business day are packed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after that cut-off, or on a weekend or statutory holiday, are dispatched on the next business day. Transit after dispatch is 2–5 business days Canada-wide, with a tracking number on every parcel, and orders over CA$200 ship free.

Does Snap-8 10mg come with a certificate of analysis?

Yes — the certificate for the lot in your box, not a representative certificate for a different batch. Every Snap-8 10mg lot is released against a >99% HPLC specification, and the document carries the lot number, the issuing laboratory and the analytical method. Certificates are not published on this site; if you need another copy, ask us for it by lot number.

How is Snap-8 10mg supplied and stored?

As a lyophilised powder in a sealed vial, which is the form that survives shipping without a cold chain. Unopened vials are stored away from light and moisture; the storage and handling page covers the laboratory conditions in full. We publish no dosing, reconstitution volumes or administration guidance of any kind.

What fill is Snap-8 10mg supplied in?

Snap-8 10mg is supplied in a single 10mg fill, released against a >99% specification.
