AOD 9604 (5mg/10mg)

(Research Use Only) AOD‑9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C‑terminal region of human growth hormone encompassing amino acids 176‑191, sometimes referred to as hGH Fragment 176‑191. It is supplied as a lyophilized powder for use as a reference material in laboratory, in‑vitro, and analytical studies conducted by qualified professionals in appropriately equipped research facilities. This product is not a drug and is not intended for human or veterinary use, clinical applications, or any form of in‑vivo administration.​

Structural Information

AOD‑9604 is a modified peptide that reproduces the terminal 16‑amino‑acid segment of human growth hormone (residues 176‑191) with an N‑terminal tyrosine substitution. It has been described in the research literature as a growth hormone–derived fragment used to study peptide stability, receptor interactions, and downstream signaling pathways under controlled experimental conditions.​

Intended Use and Limitations

This product is supplied for Research Use Only (RUO) and is not intended for human or animal consumption. It must not be used for diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease and must not be compounded, ingested, injected, or otherwise administered to humans or animals. Any scientific literature or background information associated with AOD‑9604 is provided solely to describe its chemical and research characteristics and should not be interpreted as guidance for clinical use, weight‑loss or “fat‑burning” applications, body‑composition management, metabolic or cardiovascular effects, performance enhancement, or other health‑related outcomes.​

Handling, Storage, and Quality

AOD‑9604 should be handled using standard laboratory practices appropriate for peptide reference materials, including suitable personal protective equipment and controlled laboratory conditions. Lyophilized vials should be stored according to internal laboratory protocols for peptides, typically in a cool, dry environment protected from light and moisture to help preserve material integrity prior to use.​

Each lot is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing identity, purity, and analytical data (e.g., HPLC, mass spectrometry), allowing researchers to document material quality and suitability for their specific experimental applications. Users are responsible for ensuring that all work with this compound complies with applicable regulations, institutional policies, and ethical standards.
