Snap-8: price, documentation and dispatch in Colombia
Snap-8 is in Peptidos Colombia's catalog as a reference supply for cosmetic formulation and laboratory research. Technically, it is an acetylated octapeptide, and it shares a technical category with only two other catalog references: Matrixyl, a palmitoylated pentapeptide, and hyaluronic acid, which is not a peptide. Its presentation is 10 mg in powder, with catalog code NP810. Lot identity and purity are confirmed by the certificate of analysis issued by Janoshik Analytical, per lot, with HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity, upon institutional request, subject to documentary availability. This listing organizes that documentary chain without proposing any use outside the framework declared by the catalog, which for this reference is exclusively cosmetic formulation and laboratory research.

Snap-8: an acetylated octapeptide for cosmetic formulation
Snap-8's classification as an acetylated octapeptide describes an eight-amino-acid chain with an added acetyl group, per the catalog's technical listing. This chemical modification is part of the reference's structural description, not a promise about its performance in any specific formulation.
The catalog declares this reference within its group of cosmetic formulation peptides and actives, distinct from the biomedical research categories that group the rest of the catalog. That declared-use distinction stays consistent across all of Snap-8's documentation, including the catalog code NP810 that identifies it alongside its name in any institutional request.
Three cosmetic supplies, three distinct structures
The catalog's cosmetic formulation category gathers only three references, each with a distinct structure: Snap-8, the acetylated octapeptide; Matrixyl, a palmitoylated pentapeptide; and hyaluronic acid, a glycosaminoglycan the catalog itself clarifies is not a peptide.
These three structures — acetylation, palmitoylation, and a non-peptide polysaccharide — coexist under the same commercial category because of their declared use as formulation supplies, not because they share a molecular architecture with each other. For an institution comparing the three references, the chemical modification each one declares is more useful data than grouping them only by the commercial category's name.
Acetylation versus palmitoylation: Snap-8 and Matrixyl
Before approving payment for Snap-8, it is worth checking its price in its own commercial block, without assuming it matches Matrixyl's or hyaluronic acid's, the other two references in the cosmetic group.
The declared chemical modification — acetylation in Snap-8, palmitoylation in Matrixyl — is catalog classification data, not a composition equivalence. Each reference keeps its own technical listing and its own lot certificate when requested. Each one's catalog code — NP810 for Snap-8 — should be repeated in the request and the receiving record to avoid confusing references within the same cosmetic group.
10 mg powder presentation: what storage involves
Snap-8's 10 mg presentation is declared by mass, corresponding to a powder in a vial under the catalog's criterion. It is the only presentation currently active for this reference, as is also the case for Matrixyl within the same category.
Whoever receives the vial sets their own powder-handling protocol according to their formulation process requirements; this listing does not replace it. What can be planned from the catalog is the custody location based on the declared storage condition, before the 10 mg vial reaches the institutional buyer's facilities.
Certificate of analysis per lot for a formulation supply
Snap-8's certificate of analysis is issued by Janoshik Analytical, per lot, with HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity, the same documentary procedure applied to the catalog's biomedical research references, even though Snap-8's declared use is cosmetic formulation rather than clinical research.
This listing does not publish a purity figure for Snap-8 until a COA has been requested and reviewed for the specific lot. CAS number, molecular formula, and molecular weight remain visibly pending, the same as for Matrixyl, whose listing applies the same documentary criterion.
Shipping, payment, and the file for institutional purchases
Shipping rates to Bogotá and to other destinations within the country are on the site's shipping information page, confirmed at the time of the quote according to the order's destination. Outside Colombia, this reference ships to 5 countries (Costa Rica, Ecuador, United States, Mexico and Puerto Rico), from US$57; the rate for each country is listed on the site's international shipping page.
The order is logged, confirmed in writing in the institutional quote, and only afterward is payment coordinated. The final file brings together the request, the quote, proof of payment, shipping, receipt, and the lot's COA when requested.
Frequently asked questions about Snap-8
What is Snap-8?
An acetylated octapeptide used in cosmetic formulation. It is offered as a reference supply for formulation and laboratory research.
How does it differ from Matrixyl?
Snap-8 is an acetylated octapeptide; Matrixyl is a palmitoylated pentapeptide. Each reference has its own current price in its listing's commercial block.
Is hyaluronic acid a peptide like Snap-8?
No. The catalog expressly declares it a glycosaminoglycan, not a peptide, and it is sold by piece rather than by vial.
Who certifies the lot's identity and purity?
Janoshik Analytical, per lot, with HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity, upon institutional request, subject to documentary availability.
How is this reference stored?
According to the documentation applicable to the lot, currently declared as a range of 2–8 °C, protected from light, for the entire 10 mg vial.
What catalog code identifies Snap-8?
NP810, associated with the 10 mg presentation. It helps distinguish this reference from Matrixyl and hyaluronic acid in a quote covering several cosmetic supplies.
