AOD9604: research overview
AOD9604 is a synthetic peptide based on a modified fragment of growth hormone (the 176-191 region). It is studied in the metabolic research category, particularly around fat-metabolism (lipolysis) pathways, without the broader growth-hormone activity of the full molecule.
What is AOD9604?
AOD9604 is a modified version of the C-terminal fragment (amino acids 176-191) of human growth hormone. It is studied specifically for the fat-metabolism portion of growth-hormone activity, which is why it is grouped with the metabolic research peptides.
What research has explored
In preclinical research, AOD9604 has been investigated for its interaction with lipolysis (fat breakdown) and metabolic pathways. These are laboratory findings, not established human outcomes; AOD9604 is studied as a research material only.
Forms & handling in the lab
AOD9604 ships as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, commonly in 10 mg research vials. Before use it is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water; the water volume you add sets the concentration in mg/mL.
Storage & stability
- Lyophilized powder - most stable form; keep frozen or refrigerated and protected from light until reconstituted.
- Reconstituted solution - refrigerate at roughly 2-8 °C; as a general research guideline, use within about 28 days.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, heat, and shaking, which can degrade the compound.
