What AOD-9604 Is

AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide that corresponds to a modified fragment of the C-terminal region (residues 176 to 191) of human growth hormone, with a tyrosine residue added at the N-terminus. It is produced as a lab-synthesized research compound and appears throughout the peer-reviewed literature on lipid metabolism, adipose tissue signaling, and related areas of metabolic research, which is why it remains a frequently requested compound among laboratories working in those fields.

For researchers already familiar with where AOD-9604 sits in the literature, the operative question when selecting a supplier is not what the compound does. It is whether the material received can be verified as the compound on the label, at the purity claimed. That is a sourcing and documentation problem, and it is the one this guide addresses.

Why Identity and Purity Verification Matter

AOD-9604 is a short, specific peptide sequence. Small synthetic peptides are vulnerable to a range of quality issues during synthesis and handling, including incomplete sequences, deletion or truncation products, residual synthesis reagents, and degradation from improper storage. Any of these can shift what is actually in the vial away from what the label states.

Without batch-level analytical data, there is no way to confirm whether a given lot is research-grade or whether it introduces confounding variables into downstream results. Two vials labeled identically can differ materially in purity and identity if neither is tied to verifiable testing. For research applications, that uncertainty is the problem worth solving before anything else.

What a Real Certificate of Analysis Should Include

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is the documentation that ties a specific batch to its test results. Before treating any COA as sufficient, confirm that it includes:

  • Batch or lot number matching the product received
  • Third-party testing, not only in-house results
  • HPLC purity percentage
  • Mass spectrometry identity confirmation
  • Test date and the name of the testing laboratory

A COA that is generic, undated, or not tied to a specific batch number is not a meaningful verification. It is marketing collateral. The value of the document comes from its traceability back to the exact lot in hand.

Nordiscience's Sourcing Standards

Nordiscience sources AOD-9604 under GMP-following manufacturing protocols and independently verifies each batch through third-party laboratory testing. A Certificate of Analysis is available on request for every batch sold, including HPLC purity data and mass spectrometry identity confirmation, so the material can be checked against its documentation rather than taken on trust.

Every AOD-9604 listing at Nordiscience is intended strictly for laboratory research and identification purposes.

Ordering and Support

Checkout at Nordiscience is built to remove the friction common to this category. Orders can be completed with a credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay, so there is no requirement to route payment through cryptocurrency or other workarounds. Orders ship quickly from within the United States.
