Description
AOD 9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment used as a reagent in metabolic and adipocyte research. It corresponds to the C-terminal region of human growth hormone — the sequence commonly written as hGH 176-191, with a modification at the terminus — and it is studied for that reason: it lets investigators work with a short, defined fragment rather than the full-length hormone. This listing is for laboratory purchase in Canada, supplied as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution in a solvent of the researcher’s choosing. It is not a drug, supplement or therapeutic product and is not for human or veterinary use.
Overview
Each vial contains 5mg of AOD 9604 as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, sealed under vacuum with a rubber stopper and aluminum crimp. Lyophilization is what makes the material practical to ship and hold: in the dry state the peptide is far more stable than it would be in solution, and the researcher controls the buffer, concentration and volume at the point of use. Order a single vial for a pilot experiment or a box of ten where a study protocol calls for repeat preparations from the same production run. Every batch is submitted to Janoshik Analytical, an independent third-party laboratory, for purity determination by HPLC and identity confirmation by mass spectrometry, and the corresponding certificate of analysis is matched to the batch you receive rather than to a representative sample from some earlier lot.
What it is known for
Among the metabolic research peptides available in Canada, AOD 9604 is known for being a defined fragment rather than a whole hormone — a smaller, more tractable molecule for in-vitro work on lipid metabolism and adipose tissue. Buyers choose this supply of it for the documentation: independent HPLC and MS results tied to the specific batch, not a generic spec sheet. That distinction matters, because a peptide’s behaviour in an assay depends on what is actually in the vial, and an unverified reagent quietly becomes a variable in your data.
Key features
- Independent third-party analysis by Janoshik — Purity and identity are established by a laboratory with no stake in the sale, so you are not relying on the vendor’s own word for what you are pipetting.
- HPLC purity determination — Quantifies the main peak against related impurities, so you know how much of the mass in the vial is the target peptide when you calculate working concentrations.
- Mass spectrometry identity confirmation — Confirms the molecular weight matches AOD 9604 — the check that catches a mislabeled or substituted product before it reaches your bench.
- Batch-matched certificate of analysis — The COA corresponds to the lot in your hands, which is what a lab notebook, a supervisor or a reviewer will actually ask for.
- Lyophilized 5mg format — Dry powder is stable in cold storage and travels well, and you decide the reconstitution solvent and concentration to suit your protocol.
- Sealed single-use vial — Reduces contamination risk and lets you reconstitute only what a given experiment needs.
- Box of ten option — Keeps a multi-arm or repeated study on consistent material, removing lot-to-lot variation as a confounder.
- Shipped cold and tracked from within Canada — No cross-border customs hold, no unexplained transit gap — you can see where the package is and how long it has been moving.
Benefits
- You can document the provenance and analytical profile of your reagent, which matters for reproducibility and for anyone reviewing the work
- Concentration calculations rest on a measured purity figure rather than an assumed one
- Domestic shipping and tracking shortens the window between order and bench, and keeps the cold chain simpler
- A single-vial purchase lets you validate the material in your own assay before committing to a larger quantity
- Buying the ten-vial box holds one production lot across a full experimental series

Typical applications
- In-vitro studies of lipid metabolism and adipocyte behaviour

- Assay development, method validation and analytical standard use
- Cell-culture experiments in metabolic research programs
- Teaching and demonstration work in university laboratory settings
Important information
- Research use only. Not a drug, supplement, food or cosmetic. Not for human or veterinary use, ingestion or administration, and not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
- Store the sealed lyophilized vial cold, protected from light, and keep it dry until you are ready to use it.
- Reconstitute with a solvent appropriate to your protocol using aseptic technique; once in solution, peptides are less stable than in the dry state and should be handled and stored accordingly.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of reconstituted material — aliquot instead if the protocol allows.
- Check the batch number on the vial against the certificate of analysis on receipt, and file the COA with your experimental records.
- Inspect the vial for a intact stopper and crimp seal before use.
Common questions
What exactly is AOD 9604?
It is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone, hGH 176-191, with a terminal modification. It is studied in metabolic and adipose tissue research as a defined fragment rather than the intact hormone. We supply it strictly as a laboratory reagent.
How do I get the certificate of analysis?
A COA matched to your batch is available on request. It reports the HPLC purity result and the mass spectrometry identity confirmation from Janoshik, the independent laboratory that performed the analysis.
What should I reconstitute it with?
That depends on your protocol and downstream assay. The peptide is supplied dry precisely so the researcher chooses the solvent, volume and final concentration. We do not supply reconstitution solvent with the vial or advise on protocol design.
How should it be stored once it arrives?
Keep the sealed lyophilized vial cold and protected from light. Reconstituted peptide is less stable and should be used or aliquoted and stored according to your laboratory’s practice for peptide solutions, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw.
Should I buy one vial or the box of ten?
A single vial suits a pilot run or an initial check in your own assay. The box of ten is for studies that need several preparations from a single production lot, which removes batch variation from your results.
Can this be used on people or animals?
No. It is sold for in-vitro laboratory research only and is not approved or intended for human or veterinary administration in any form. Purchasers are expected to be qualified research buyers handling it in an appropriate laboratory setting.
In summary
A 5mg lyophilized vial of AOD 9604 with independent HPLC purity and MS identity data attached to your specific batch, shipped cold and tracked from within Canada. If your work depends on knowing what is in the vial, that documentation is the reason to choose it. Strictly for in-vitro research use.
