SNAP-8 Reconstitution Calculator

For in vitro research use only · Not medical advice

Preset to a 10 mg SNAP-8 vial in 2 mL of diluent. A 10 mg vial in 2 mL yields 5 mg/mL. For topical studies, dissolve into the aqueous phase of the base.

A 10 mg SNAP-8 vial reconstituted with 2 mL gives 5 mg/mL. Measuring 0.100 mL gives 500 mcg per portion — about 20 portions from the vial.

Choosing a diluent for SNAP-8

Water-soluble and dissolves readily. The N-terminal acetyl cap adds stability. Typically studied in aqueous topical preparations.

PrimarySterile water
Alternative 1Bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol)
Alternative 2Aqueous cosmetic bases for topical formulation studies

Handling notes for SNAP-8

  • Reach room temperature before opening.
  • For topical formulation studies, dissolve into the aqueous phase of the base.
  • Label aliquots with reconstitution date and diluent.

After reconstitution

StorageRefrigerate at 2-8 °C.
Working windowCommonly worked with for several weeks at 2-8 °C — the acetyl cap and lack of oxidation-prone residues help.
Freeze–thawTolerant; aliquot to limit repeated handling.
