SNAP-8 200mg (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is an eight-residue cosmetic peptide powder from Peptide Sciences for expression-line research.
SNAP-8 Research Overview
SNAP-8 extends the Argireline sequence by two amino acids, which is reported to strengthen its SNARE-complex interference. Cosmetic studies compare the two to understand how peptide length affects activity in topical formulations.

Using the 200mg Powder
Suitable for comparative formulation research.
Research Considerations
Formulators often evaluate SNAP-8 at several concentrations in serum and cream bases to identify the most stable vehicle, tracking peptide content by HPLC across accelerated stability conditions.
Quality Control, COA and Shipping
Each lot is analysed by reverse-phase HPLC and identity-confirmed by mass spectrometry before release, and the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available for every order. Vials are lyophilised, sealed under inert conditions and shipped in insulated packaging from our US facility.
