Synthetic 16-residue peptide, YLRIVQCRSVEGSCGF with a Cys7–Cys14 disulfide. Planned as a 5 mg listing to the same standard as the rest of the catalogue: lyophilised powder in a crimp-sealed glass vial, held in UK stock, dispatched tracked on working days with UK delivery included in the price.
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide of sixteen amino acid residues with the sequence YLRIVQCRSVEGSCGF, cyclised by a disulfide bond between Cys7 and Cys14. Residues 2 to 16 correspond to positions 177 to 191 of human growth hormone, the C-terminal region of that protein, with a tyrosine added at the N-terminus in place of the native phenylalanine; that single substitution is what separates it from the unmodified hGH fragment 176–191. Its identifiers are CAS 221231-10-3, molecular formula C78H123N23O23S2 and a molar mass of approximately 1815.1 g/mol for the free peptide.
The planned listing is 5 mg fill weight as lyophilised powder in a crimp-sealed glass vial, made by chemical synthesis. Fill weight is the mass of powder in the vial rather than net peptide content, which is a separate figure explained in peptide purity versus net peptide content.
AOD-9604 is not yet on sale. It is listed so that laboratories in the United Kingdom can see what is planned and register interest; when it is in UK stock we send one email to say so, with the price, and nothing else. When it goes on sale it will be supplied on the same terms as every other material here: the price shown will be the total payable with UK delivery included, dispatched by Royal Mail Tracked 24 in unbranded packaging, with an order placed before 14:00 on a working day leaving that day where stock allows. Dispatch detail is on the shipping page. We supply research organisations, educational and commercial laboratories, and individuals purchasing for legitimate research.
AOD-9604 will be supplied lyophilised, for storage at −20 °C protected from light. The molecule contains a disulfide bridge, and once in solution the two cysteines are open to reduction, oxidation to other species or exchange with any free thiol present; it also carries a glutamine (Gln6) that can deamidate. All of that chemistry needs water, so a dry, sealed, cold cake is the stable state; the reasoning is in lyophilised peptide storage and stability.
AOD-9604 is listed by NorthScientific strictly for laboratory research use. It is not a licensed medicine and has not been evaluated or approved by the MHRA; it is not a food, cosmetic or supplement; and it is not for human or veterinary consumption in any form. We provide no dosing, protocol or outcome guidance of any kind, and nothing on this page, in our guides or in correspondence should be read as such.
No. NorthScientific lists AOD-9604 for laboratory research only; it is not for human or veterinary consumption in any form. We give no dosing or protocol guidance, and nothing on this page should be read as such.
We list it now so that laboratories can register interest, and we email once, when it is in UK stock and on sale. No date is promised: it goes on sale when supply meets the same standard as the rest of the catalogue, and the price is published then.
By one residue. Both are sixteen-residue peptides with the Cys7–Cys14 disulfide; the native fragment begins with phenylalanine (Phe176) and AOD-9604 begins with tyrosine in that position. The extra oxygen of tyrosine is the difference between their formulae (C78H123N23O23S2 against C78H123N23O22S2) and their masses.
That residues 2 to 16 of the sequence match positions 177 to 191 of human growth hormone, a 191-residue protein. It is a statement of sequence identity; the material is a synthetic sixteen-residue peptide and is not that protein.
Not necessarily. The planned 5 mg is the fill weight of lyophilised powder in the vial; the peptide share depends on salt form and residual moisture. We do not publish an analysis for this material, so read the figure as fill weight.
