AOD-9604

hGH Fragment

AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (hGH) comprising amino acids 177-191 with a tyrosine at the N-terminus. It has been studied for its lipolytic activity independent of growth-promoting effects.

Research-First Philosophy

Jeff's approach to business mirrors the scientific method itself: make claims only when backed by data. Every Stemcode product ships with a Certificate of Analysis documenting HPLC purity, mass spectrometry identity confirmation, and batch-specific results. There are no proprietary blends, no undisclosed ingredients, and no ambiguity about what's in each product. "Researchers need to trust their materials," Jeff says. "If you can't verify what you're working with, you can't trust your results. We built Stemcode to solve that problem."
