AOD-9604 reconstitution calculator.
Work out the concentration of a reconstituted AOD-9604 vial. Presets match the 5 mg format we stock, and the reference table below is calculated for those exact vials. Research use only.
This tool reports concentration only. It is not dosing guidance, and nothing here is for human use.
AOD-9604 concentration reference table
Every combination of the AOD-9604 vial sizes we stock and the bacteriostatic water volumes people most often add.
| Vial | BAC water | Concentration | Per 100 µL aliquot |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 1 ml | 5 mg/ml | 0.5 mg (500 mcg) |
| 5 mg | 2 ml | 2.5 mg/ml | 0.25 mg (250 mcg) |
| 5 mg | 3 ml | 1.667 mg/ml | 0.167 mg (167 mcg) |
| 5 mg | 5 ml | 1 mg/ml | 0.1 mg (100 mcg) |
How the calculation works
Concentration is the mass of peptide divided by the volume of solvent. A vial holding 5 mg reconstituted with 2 ml of bacteriostatic water gives 2.5 mg/ml, so a 100 µL aliquot contains 0.25 mg. The powder itself adds no meaningful volume at these masses, which is why the water volume alone sets the concentration.
Handling in the Vietnamese climate
Sealed lyophilized vials are stable at room temperature in transit, which is why the material ships dry rather than cold. Once reconstituted, the solution is kept refrigerated and shielded from light. Bacteriostatic water is the usual solvent because the benzyl alcohol in it lets a vial be entered more than once.
What is AOD-9604?
The tail end of growth hormone, cut away from the rest of the molecule.
AOD-9604 is a fragment: it reproduces the last section of human growth hormone, residues 176 to 191, with a tyrosine added at one end for stability. The reasoning behind it was specific. Researchers had identified this tail region as the part associated with fat metabolism, separate from the parts driving growth.
So the fragment was made deliberately to keep one property and leave the rest behind. It does not activate growth hormone receptors the way the full hormone does. Human trials were run and results were unimpressive, which is a relevant part of the record.

Common questions
What is AOD-9604?
A synthetic peptide reproducing the tail section of human growth hormone (residues 176–191), with a tyrosine added for stability. It was designed to isolate the fat-metabolism-associated region from the growth-promoting parts. Listed here as a non-clinical research material.
Does AOD-9604 act like growth hormone?
No. It reproduces only the tail fragment and does not activate growth hormone receptors the way the full hormone does. Human trials have been run, and the results were unimpressive.
How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a AOD-9604 vial?
There is no single correct volume. The water volume sets the concentration: more water gives a weaker solution and a larger aliquot for the same mass. Common choices are 1 to 5 ml. Enter your vial size above to see what each volume produces for 5 mg.
What concentration does a AOD-9604 vial give?
It depends entirely on the solvent volume. The reference table above lists every combination of the 5 mg vial format and 1, 2, 3 and 5 ml of bacteriostatic water.
Does the powder change the final volume?
Not measurably at these masses. A few milligrams of lyophilized peptide occupies a negligible volume, so the bacteriostatic water you add is effectively the final volume.
Can I use normal water or saline instead?
Bacteriostatic water is the standard solvent for multi-entry vials because it contains a preservative. Sterile water and saline have no preservative, so they are single-entry solvents.
