SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a synthetic octapeptide developed by Lipotec (Lubrizol). The extended sequence (Ac-Glu-Glu-Met-Gln-Arg-Arg-Ala-Asp-NH₂) provides greater stability and approximately 30% stronger inhibition of the SNARE complex than Argireline®, as documented in published scientific literature. For Research Use Only. Not for human use.
