AOD-9604 5mg ships as a 5mg vial of lyophilized powder, held in inventory in the United States and priced at $45 per vial. Bundle pricing lowers the per-vial price automatically in the cart: $42 each at two vials, $40 each at three, and $38 each at five. No code, no account, no quote step. An order that clears before 4PM ET leaves the same day, weekends included.
What researchers look for in an AOD-9604 supplier
AOD-9604 is a short synthesis and no supplier struggles to make it. The friction sits downstream of the chemistry. It is whether the vial is already on a shelf in the United States or waiting on an overseas batch, whether the price printed on the page survives to checkout, and whether the parcel actually moves on the day the order lands.
Stock physically held in the United States. We hold AOD-9604 in our own inventory rather than routing orders to an overseas synthesis lab. The stock count on the product page is a real number, not a placeholder. A listed vial is on a shelf and leaves the same day your order clears.
Published pricing with no quote step. A single vial is $45 and every bundle tier is printed on the page. There is no request-a-quote form, no volume negotiation and no membership level that unlocks a better number. What you read is what the cart charges.
Dispatch measured in hours, not weeks. Orders placed before 4PM ET are dispatched the same day, seven days a week, weekends included. Tracking is emailed the same day the parcel leaves, so you know the material is moving before the day closes rather than guessing at it.
A purity standard applied before listing. AOD-9604 is held to 98% or higher purity. Material that does not meet the standard is not listed for sale, so there is no grade selector on the page and no cheaper tier that quietly means something different.

What AOD-9604 is, in research terms
AOD-9604 is a synthetic 16 amino acid peptide corresponding to the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, residues 176 to 191, with tyrosine substituted at the N-terminus. The molecular formula is C78H123N23O23S2, the molecular weight is 1,813.86 Da and the CAS number is 221231-10-3. Two cysteine residues form an intramolecular disulfide bridge that holds the fragment in a constrained loop, which is what distinguishes it from a linear peptide of identical composition.
Full-length human growth hormone carries a somatogenic region that engages the growth hormone receptor and a C-terminal region the literature associates with adipose tissue metabolism. AOD-9604 isolates the second from the first, and that is the experiment it enables. Run the fragment and the intact hormone side by side in the same adipocyte preparation, and the readouts that track the C-terminal region alone separate out. Because the fragment does not reproduce receptor-mediated growth signaling, IGF-1 and glucose readouts become interpretable rather than confounded.
Published preclinical work runs in isolated adipocytes and adipose explants, where glycerol and free fatty acid release give a direct readout of lipolytic activity, and in rodent models, including genetically obese strains and diet-induced obese lines, where body composition and adipose depot mass are followed across a study period. Beta-3 adrenergic receptor expression in adipose tissue is a commonly reported endpoint. Our article AOD-9604 Research: HGH Fragment 176-191 and Lipid Metabolism covers these model systems in more depth.

Bundle pricing, printed on the page
| Quantity | Per vial | Order total | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 vial | $45 | $45 | – |

The experiment AOD-9604 exists for is a side by side: the fragment and intact growth hormone in one adipocyte preparation, read as glycerol and free fatty acid release. That is two arms across several time points, and rodent work on obese strains runs for weeks rather than an afternoon. Five is the first quantity above $150, so US shipping comes at no charge. Tiers step down 5% for two, 10% for three and 15% for five, added by the cart rather than typed in.
US stock, international shipping and same-day dispatch
Orders placed before 4PM ET are dispatched the same day, seven days a week. Weekends are not a queue here, and a Saturday order is not a Monday order. Tracking is emailed the same day the parcel leaves. Stock sits in the United States, which is why a domestic order is measured in business days rather than customs weeks.
Standard Shipping inside the United States is $12 and arrives in 2 to 5 business days, and it is free on orders over $150. Expedited 2-3 Day is $39. Overnight is $95. Standard International is $40 flat at 10 to 20 business days, free on orders of $500 and above. Express International is $100 flat at 5 to 10 business days.
Storage and handling
The sealed lyophilized vial is stable at minus 20C for long-term storage and at 2 to 8C for short-term storage. Keep it dry, sealed and out of direct light until the day it is reconstituted. Once in solution, hold it at 2 to 8C and split it into single-use aliquots before freezing. Our storage and handling page sets out the full protocol, and the reconstitution calculator does the concentration arithmetic for any diluent volume on a 5mg vial.
Checkout, payment and support
Checkout takes Visa and Mastercard directly on the site and finishes in one pass. There is no bank wire, no invoice to wait on and no redirect to an outside portal asking for a wallet address. Bitcoin, Zelle, Cash App and Venmo are also accepted at checkout. Enter the card, place the order, and the confirmation lands straight away.
Support replies within one business day. If a parcel arrives damaged, or the contents do not match the order, send us the order number and a photo and we will replace it. No claim form is involved.

Frequently asked questions
What is AOD-9604?
AOD-9604 is a synthetic 16 amino acid peptide based on the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, residues 176 to 191, with tyrosine substituted at the N-terminus. Its molecular weight is 1,813.86 Da and its CAS number is 221231-10-3. Published preclinical work uses it as a tool compound separating the adipose metabolic region of growth hormone from the somatogenic region. It is supplied for laboratory research use only.
Why buy AOD-9604 from Core Research Peptides?
Stock is held in the United States, so a domestic AOD-9604 order moves in business days rather than customs weeks. Every price, the bundle tiers included, is printed on the page and there is no quote step to work through first. An order that clears before 4PM ET leaves the building the same day, weekends included, with tracking emailed the same day it goes out. Card checkout finishes in one pass, and support replies within one business day.
What purity is your AOD-9604?
AOD-9604 is held to a purity standard of 98% or higher. Material that does not meet that standard is not listed for sale, which is why there is no grade selector and no cheaper tier on the product page. Each vial holds 5mg of AOD-9604 as a lyophilized powder.
How fast do you ship AOD-9604, and what does shipping cost?
Orders placed before 4PM ET are dispatched the same day, seven days a week, and tracking is emailed the same day the parcel leaves. Standard Shipping inside the United States is $12 and arrives in 2 to 5 business days, free on orders over $150. Expedited 2-3 Day is $39 and Overnight is $95. A five-vial order at $190 clears the free shipping threshold.
Do you ship AOD-9604 internationally?
Yes. Standard International is $40 flat and arrives in 10 to 20 business days, and it is free on orders of $500 and above. Express International is $100 flat and arrives in 5 to 10 business days. International parcels leave on the same schedule as domestic ones. Customs handling sits outside our control and is not counted inside those windows.
Do you offer bundle pricing on AOD-9604?
Yes. Two vials bring the per-vial price to $42, three vials to $40, and five vials to $38, which is $190 for five and $35 less than five single-vial orders. The discount applies automatically in the cart, with no code and no account required. A coupon code stacks on top of bundle pricing.
How should AOD-9604 be stored?
Keep the sealed vial at minus 20C for long-term storage, or at 2 to 8C when it will be used soon. Store it dry, sealed and away from direct light until the day it is reconstituted. In solution, treat it as a short-lived stock held at 2 to 8C, and if it has to be kept longer, divide it into single-use aliquots and freeze those so no vial thaws twice.
