SNAP-8
SNAP-8 dosage is best expressed as the concentration of active acetyl octapeptide-3 in a finished topical research formulation. Human research has evaluated SNAP-8 in creams, multi-peptide serums, and purpose-built dissolving microneedle patches. The calculator below converts
- Best documented conventional cream reference
- About 0.005% active SNAP-8, equal to 50 ppm.
- Developer reference range
- About 0.0015% to 0.005% active peptide in the finished topical formula.
- Whole 10 mg vial at 0.005%
- 200 g final batch weight.
- 50 g batch at 0.005%
- 2.5 mg active peptide.
- Human schedule context
- Twice-daily cream application for 28 days in manufacturer testing.
| Final Batch | Active Peptide | Active % w/w | ppm | Research Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30 g | 10 mg | 0.0333% w/w | 333 ppm | About 6.7 times the upper developer reference |
| 50 g | 10 mg | 0.0200% w/w | 200 ppm | 4 times the upper developer reference |
| 100 g | 10 mg | 0.0100% w/w | 100 ppm | 2 times the upper developer reference |
| 200 g | 10 mg | 0.0050% w/w | 50 ppm | Matches 10% of the nominal 0.05% supplier solution |
| 333.3 g | 10 mg | 0.0030% w/w | 30 ppm | Mid-range calculation |
| 666.7 g | 10 mg | 0.0015% w/w | 15 ppm | Matches 3% of the nominal 0.05% supplier solution |
