Description
AOD-9604 2mg from Polaris Peptides is a lyophilised research peptide with over 99% purity confirmed by HPLC-MS. AOD-9604 is a growth hormone C-terminal fragment (also known as hGH fragment 176-191 (modified)), supplied vacuum-sealed and sold strictly for laboratory research.
At $40.00 this vial works out to $20.00 per milligram.
What Is AOD-9604 2mg?
AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone, based on amino acids 176-191 with an added tyrosine. This region of GH was identified as the part linked to fat metabolism, separate from the parts that drive growth and IGF-1.
Researchers study AOD-9604 to examine lipolysis (fat breakdown) and lipogenesis without raising IGF-1 or affecting blood sugar the way full-length GH can. It has also been investigated in cartilage research.

AOD-9604 Research Areas
Published studies on AOD-9604 cover several areas. The list below summarises the main ones so you can see where it fits your work.
- Lipolysis: fat breakdown in adipocytes.
- GH fragment biology: separating metabolic effects from growth effects.
- Cartilage models: joint and cartilage repair research.
- IGF-1 independence: metabolic activity without IGF-1 elevation.
Storing and Handling AOD-9604 2mg
Store unopened vials at −20 °C, where the dry powder stays stable for long periods. Before reconstitution, let the vial reach room temperature to stop condensation forming inside. Add bacteriostatic water or another lab-grade solvent slowly down the side of the vial and swirl gently rather than shaking. Once reconstituted, keep it at 2–8 °C and complete your work within 28 days.
Why Order AOD-9604 From Polaris Peptides
Every batch of AOD-9604 we sell is checked by HPLC-MS for identity and purity before it is listed. Vials are vacuum-sealed to keep moisture out and labelled with the exact amount. If you are comparing suppliers, ask for the batch analysis and check it against the label. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.
How AOD-9604 2mg Is Tested
We use two methods together. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separates the contents of a sample so we can see how much of it is the target compound and how much is anything else, such as truncated sequences or leftover synthesis reagents. Mass spectrometry (MS) then weighs the molecules, which confirms that the main peak really is AOD-9604 and not a look-alike. A result above 99% on both counts is what earns a batch a place in our catalogue. Lots that fall short are not sold.

AOD-9604 2mg FAQ
Is AOD-9604 the same as growth hormone?
No. It is a short fragment from the end of the GH molecule and does not act like full growth hormone in published studies.
How should AOD-9604 be reconstituted?
We recommend lab-grade bacteriostatic water and a 3mL volume to prevent aggregation and thickening of the solution.
What purity is AOD-9604 2mg?
Over 99%, confirmed by HPLC-MS on every batch.
How should AOD-9604 be stored?
Dry powder at −20 °C. After reconstitution, 2–8 °C, used within 28 days.
Is AOD-9604 2mg for human use?
No. It is sold for laboratory and in-vitro research only. It is not a drug, food or cosmetic and is not for human or veterinary use.
