AOD-9604
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide based on residues 176–191 of human growth hormone. Supplied as a lyophilized powder in sealed vials. Each batch has its own certificate of analysis (COA), which opens when you scan the QR code on the label. For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
AOD-9604 research profile
AOD-9604 is a modified 16-residue fragment of the C-terminus of human growth hormone, with a disulfide bond between Cys7 and Cys14. It was developed at Monash University by Frank Ng's group and studied in rodent fat-metabolism models; clinical development ended around 2007.

Frequently asked questions
What is AOD-9604 derived from?
The C-terminal region of human growth hormone (around residues 176–191), with an added or substituted N-terminal tyrosine.
Why does the salt form matter?
The molecular weight above is the free base; the acetate salt is heavier. The COA lists what was tested.
How do I verify my lot?
Scan the QR code on the vial. It opens the certificate of analysis for that lot, with HPLC purity and the mass spectrometry identity result.
