Physical Properties
AOD-9604 is a 16-amino-acid analog of the hGH C-terminal region (residues ~176-191) with an added N-terminal tyrosine and a Cys7-Cys14 disulfide bridge. It is studied for lipolytic activity independent of the glycemic and IGF-1 effects of full growth hormone.
Analysis & Documentation
Identity
Each production lot is checked against the reference structure recorded for this compound:
- Classification — Modified hGH C-terminal fragment peptide
- Molecular formula — C₇₈H₁₂₃N₂₃O₂₃S₂
- Expected mass — ~1,815.1 Da
- CAS registry — 221231-10-3
- Chain length — 16 amino acids

Analytical Methods
Testing is carried out per lot by an independent laboratory. The methods measure what the material is and how much of it is the target compound:
- RP-HPLC — reverse-phase separation of the target from process-related impurities; purity is reported as area percent of the main peak
- Mass spectrometry — observed mass compared against the expected molecular mass above
- Retention time — compared against a reference standard run under the same conditions
- Chromatogram — reproduced on the certificate so the peak and any shoulders can be inspected directly
Material & Documentation
What arrives, and how to tie it back to its paperwork:
- Appearance as supplied — Solid oral capsule (research-grade AOD-9604)
- Lot number — printed on the container label and used to look up the certificate
- Certificate — indexed by lot at Certificates of Analysis
