    Product Description

    SNAP is an S-nitrosothiol which serves as a NO donor and a potent vasodilator. Its stability in solution varies from seconds to hours depending on temperature, buffer composition and metal content.1,2,3,4 At pH 6-8 and 37°C, the half-life of SNAP is approximately six hours in the presence of transition metal ion chelators.5,4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
