What is SNAP-8?
SNAP-8 is a synthetic peptide supplied as a lyophilised powder for laboratory research. It is provided as a research material for analytical work and in vitro laboratory applications. The peptide sequence, identity and applicable specifications for the material supplied are stated on the certificate of analysis for the relevant lot.
About SNAP-8
SNAP-8 is an octapeptide consisting of eight amino acid residues. It is produced by synthetic peptide synthesis rather than recombinant protein expression. The sequence, molecular weight and other relevant characteristics of the material supplied are documented on the certificate of analysis for the applicable lot.
A synthetic peptide
SNAP-8 is a synthetic peptide rather than a recombinant protein. Analytical testing may be used to assess characteristics including peptide identity and chromatographic purity.
Chromatographic purity describes the proportion of material detected as the principal chromatographic component under the stated analytical conditions. It should be considered together with the other analytical information reported for the specific lot rather than being treated as a standalone assessment of the material.
Solubility and handling
SNAP-8 is supplied as a lyophilised research material. Reconstitution, storage and handling requirements may depend on the intended laboratory application and the formulation supplied.
Preparation, storage and handling information applicable to the material supplied should be checked against the certificate of analysis and accompanying product documentation before laboratory use.
Specification figures
The peptide sequence, molecular weight, labelled quantity, purity specification and analytical results for the supplied lot are stated on its certificate of analysis.
Published specifications for research peptides can vary between sources and analytical methods. This page therefore defers to the certificate of analysis for the specific lot supplied rather than restating figures that may not correspond to the material supplied.
Analysis and certification
Each lot is accompanied by analytical documentation identifying the material and reporting the applicable test results.
The certificate of analysis relates to the specific lot supplied. The analytical methods applied and the results obtained for that lot are stated on the certificate and should be reviewed alongside the product information before laboratory use.
Research use only
NH Peptides supplies SNAP-8 solely as a research material for laboratory use.
For research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
This product is not supplied as a medicinal product, food, food supplement, cosmetic or cosmetic ingredient. Nothing in this listing is intended to describe, recommend or imply use in humans or animals.

Reading the certificate for a synthetic peptide
The analytical information applicable to a synthetic peptide can vary according to the material supplied and the methods used for testing. This listing therefore states what the certificate reports rather than assuming a fixed analytical method set.
Chromatographic purity describes the proportion of material detected as the principal chromatographic component under the stated analytical conditions. It should be considered alongside the other analytical results reported for the specific lot.
Why no purity figure is printed on this page
Analytical figures relate to the specific lot against which they are reported. A purity figure printed on a general product page may not correspond to the lot supplied at the time of purchase.
The certificate of analysis associated with the relevant lot is the applicable record for the material supplied and provides the analytical results and specifications reported for that lot.
Research use only
NH Peptides supplies SNAP-8 as a research material for laboratory use.
For research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
This product is not supplied as a medicinal product, food, food supplement, cosmetic or cosmetic ingredient. Nothing in this specification is intended to describe, recommend or imply use in humans or animals.
h2>Storing the lyophilised peptide
SNAP-8 is supplied as a lyophilised research peptide. Store the sealed vial under the storage conditions specified on the product documentation and certificate of analysis for the relevant lot. Keep the material dry and protected from light and moisture where applicable.
Allow the vial to reach an appropriate temperature before opening where necessary to minimise condensation. Keep the vial sealed when not in use and return the material to the specified storage conditions promptly after handling.
Reconstitution
Reconstitution requirements can depend on the formulation of the material supplied and the intended laboratory application. Use only a suitable laboratory solvent or diluent compatible with the intended application and follow any reconstitution instructions provided with the specific lot.
The certificate of analysis and accompanying product documentation for the supplied material should be consulted before preparation. Avoid unnecessary vigorous agitation and handle the material using appropriate laboratory procedures.
Working solutions
Prepare working solutions using laboratory procedures appropriate for the intended research application. Where practical, minimise unnecessary exposure to repeated temperature changes and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage conditions and stability of any prepared working solution may depend on the solvent, concentration, formulation and experimental conditions. Users should establish appropriate conditions for their own laboratory application.
General handling
Handle SNAP-8 as a laboratory research material using appropriate laboratory precautions. Wear suitable personal protective equipment and avoid generating dust when handling the lyophilised material.
Use appropriate containment and laboratory practices during preparation and handling. Dispose of unused material, solutions and containers in accordance with the procedures applicable at your institution and the requirements of the relevant jurisdiction.

What does SNAP-8 mean?
SNAP-8 refers to the name of a synthetic octapeptide, meaning a peptide consisting of eight amino acid residues. The identity and sequence of the material supplied are stated on the certificate of analysis for the relevant lot.
The “8” in SNAP-8 refers to the peptide's eight-residue length. SNAP-8 is supplied as a synthetic research material and is not a recombinant protein.
Why is no purity figure shown on this page?
Because analytical figures relate to the lot they are published against, and a figure printed on a product page describes a lot you may not receive. The certificate published against your lot number is the record that applies to your material.
How should it be reconstituted?
In dilute acid rather than water or a neutral buffer, since the protein is poorly soluble at neutral pH, then diluted into the working medium. Confirm the guidance on the certificate of analysis for your lot before preparing stocks, and see the storage and handling tab.
Why does the certificate look different from your peptide certificates?
Because this is a recombinant protein rather than a short synthetic peptide, and different analyses apply. Chromatographic purity does not on its own establish correct disulfide folding or the absence of aggregates and host cell protein. If your work depends on any of those, confirm the certificate reports them before ordering.
How is it shipped?
In temperature stable, plainly labelled packaging on a tracked UK service. Compound names do not appear on the outer packaging.
Who is eligible to order?
Sale is restricted to persons aged 18 or over who are qualified researchers, or who purchase on behalf of a research institution, laboratory or business. This website is not an offer to supply to the general public. Full details are in our research use only policy.
Are prices shown with VAT?
Prices are shown in pounds sterling. Any VAT that applies is calculated and displayed at checkout before you place the order.
