AOD-9604 Reconstitution Calculator

A modified fragment of human growth hormone studied in lipolysis research. This page works out concentration, volume per measured amount, syringe units and preparations per vial for a reconstituted AOD-9604 preparation, plus the mass-to-molar conversions for its stated molecular weight. Everything runs in your browser; plan entries stay in this browser, with optional device-local saving and calendar export.

Syringe capacity

Whole administrations exclude dead space, handling losses and expiry. A calculated quantity is not a guarantee of usable supply. No rounding to a nearby syringe mark is performed.

Protocol schedule

Schedule an existing prescribed or approved protocol. This tool cannot determine how often you can safely take a peptide. Frequency, dose, reconstitution, storage and discard instructions must come from the product label and your clinician or pharmacist.

A separate worked example, step by step

This separate arithmetic example uses a 5 mg vial, 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, and a 250 mcg target amount. They are not a property of AOD-9604 and not an amount anyone should draw — these figures only illustrate the arithmetic.

  1. Concentration. 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.5 mg/mL (2,500 mcg/mL), which for AOD-9604 is approximately 1.377 mM at its stated molecular weight.
  2. Per syringe unit. A U-100 syringe divides 1 mL into 100 units, so one unit holds 2,500 mcg ÷ 100 = 25 mcg.
  3. Volume for the 250 mcg target. 250 mcg ÷ 2,500 mcg/mL = 0.1 mL, or 10 units on that syringe.
  4. Preparations per vial. 5,000 mcg ÷ 250 mcg = 20 preparations.

Mass and molar equivalents for AOD-9604

Derived from the molecular weight recorded on the AOD-9604 entry: ~1815 g/mol — the entry states this as an approximate figure, so the equivalents below are approximate too. Concentration in molar units is what an in-vitro protocol is usually specified in.

Mass to molar conversions for AOD-9604 at its stated molecular weight.
QuantityMolar equivalent
1 mg of AOD-9604551 nmol (0.551 µmol)
1 mcg of AOD-96040.551 nmol
A 1 mg/mL solution0.551 mM (551 µM)

Molar amount = mass ÷ molecular weight. Figures are shown to four significant digits and are a unit conversion, not a measurement.

Handling questions for AOD-9604

How does AOD-9604 differ from unmodified HGH Fragment 176-191?

AOD-9604 is a stabilized analog of HGH Fragment 176-191: it adds a tyrosine residue at the N-terminus of the native fragment. This modification was engineered in preclinical work to improve metabolic stability and lipolytic activity relative to the raw fragment. Both are studied for fat metabolism, but AOD-9604 is the more characterized, stabilized version.

How should AOD-9604 be stored and reconstituted for research?

AOD-9604 is supplied as a lyophilized powder and is typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic or sterile water for laboratory handling. Lyophilized peptide is generally stored refrigerated (2-8 C) or frozen for longer terms; reconstituted solution is kept refrigerated and used within a limited window. A COA with HPLC purity (commonly >=98%) and mass-spec identity confirmation is standard.
