Tiers name what a vendor publishes, not a verdict on any product's purity or quality.
Lab-verifiable COAs: certificates that open on the testing lab's own site (the seal's ring shows what share of them do).
Third-party COAs: certificates attributed to a third-party lab, which may be hosted only on the vendor's site.
Tiers follow the Vendor Score (90+ and 80–89), which is 87% COA evidence; the numeral in each seal is that score.
Affiliate relationships never affect tiers, selection or order. How the Vendor Score works
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide derived from the C-terminal region (residues 176-191) of human growth hormone, sometimes described as an HGH fragment analog. In laboratory and preclinical research it has been studied in relation to lipid metabolism and adipose tissue. It is a research-use-only (RUO) material and is not approved for human or veterinary use. This index tracks RUO vendor pricing for AOD-9604 to help researchers compare cost across suppliers.
Evidence brief
AOD-9604 is a synthetic fragment of human growth hormone (the C-terminal lipolytic region) that was advanced as an anti-obesity candidate.

Per-mg pricing for AOD-9604 varies across vendors because of differences in synthesis scale, stated purity, vial fill size, and lot testing overhead. Comparing normalized $/mg alongside documented purity lets a researcher weigh true material cost rather than headline vial price.
▸ Reading the COA
For AOD-9604 a certificate of analysis should confirm identity by mass spectrometry against the expected monoisotopic/average mass for the 176-191-derived sequence, with HPLC purity reported (commonly a ≥98% threshold for research-grade material). Watch for truncated or deletion sequences and residual synthesis byproducts (TFA counterion, acetate) in the impurity profile, and confirm the reported net peptide content rather than gross vial weight.
▸ FAQ
How should lyophilized AOD-9604 be stored to preserve stability of the research material?
As a lyophilized powder, AOD-9604 is generally most stable when kept sealed, desiccated, and frozen (commonly -20°C or colder), protected from light, moisture, and repeated temperature cycling. This is general storage information for preserving the stability of research material and is not human-use, dosing, or administration guidance; always follow the storage conditions stated on the vendor's COA and safety data sheet.
What is a COA and what should I check for on one for AOD-9604?
A certificate of analysis (COA) is a lot-specific document from the manufacturer reporting analytical test results for the material. For AOD-9604, check that identity is verified by mass spectrometry matching the expected mass of the 176-191-derived sequence, that HPLC purity is stated with a numeric percentage, and that the lot number, net peptide content, and counterion/impurity data are present.
Why do per-mg prices for AOD-9604 differ so much between vendors?
Differences reflect synthesis batch scale, stated and verified purity, vial fill size, counterion form affecting net peptide mass, and the depth of third-party or in-house analytical testing. A larger vial or higher documented purity often changes the effective $/mg, which is why normalized per-mg comparison is more informative than comparing vial prices directly.
All products listed are sold by third-party vendors for laboratory and research use only (RUO). Where an FDA label or a peer-reviewed study has published a dose, pepmg reports it with the source named, because that is safer than guessing. It is a report, not medical advice and not a recommendation to use anything. pepmg sells nothing and ships nothing. Listings are price-tracking data, not endorsements.
