Contents: Lyophilized Powder in 3ml vial
Requires reconstitution with bacteriostatic water
LABORATORY HANDLING NOTES: AOD-9604 has unique solubility characteristics that researchers should be aware of when preparing solutions for in vitro applications.
Recommended Solvent Protocol: This compound demonstrates optimal solubility when reconstituted using a combination of 0.6% acetic acid solution and sterile water. Add solvents gradually along the vial wall to minimize agitation, as excessive mechanical disruption may affect solution clarity.
Solution Stability: Due to the high purity of this preparation, reconstituted AOD-9604 may exhibit increased viscosity or gel formation over time. This is a known characteristic of highly concentrated AOD-9604 solutions and does not indicate degradation. Researchers should prepare working aliquots promptly after reconstitution for optimal handling.
Note: If increased viscosity occurs, additional acetic acid solution may restore fluidity.

Compound Overview
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment corresponding to a defined C-terminal region of human growth hormone, commonly described as residues 176–191, with an N-terminal tyrosine substitution. The compound is structurally characterized by a short amino acid sequence containing two cysteine residues that form an intramolecular disulfide bond, contributing to a conformationally constrained peptide framework.
In laboratory research contexts, AOD-9604 is used for peptide characterization workflows including identity confirmation, stability profiling, and structure–function investigation of growth hormone–derived fragments in controlled in vitro and animal model systems. All data referenced on this page is derived from published preclinical animal and in vitro studies. No human clinical trials have established approved uses for AOD-9604 as a research compound.

Handling & Storage
Lyophilized Stability:
When stored sealed in a dry environment protected from light, lyophilized peptide material may maintain chemical stability for up to 12 months at controlled room temperature. For maximum long-term preservation, storage at -20°C is recommended.
Post-Reconstitution Stability:
Following reconstitution under sterile laboratory conditions, the solution may maintain stability for up to 30 days when stored at 2–8°C. Minimize repeated freeze–thaw cycles and protect from light to preserve peptide integrity.
Handling:
Allow vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation. Use sterile technique throughout preparation.
