- AOD-9604 (hyphenated)
- HPLC verification, ≥98%
- Solid-phase peptide synthesis under GMP
- Yes, with batch-specific HPLC chromatogram
- $180–$280 per 5mg vial
- Standard research-grade labeling from established suppliers. Hyphen indicates attention to formal nomenclature
- AOD9604 (no hyphen)
- Varies. Some suppliers provide CoA, others do not
- Solid-phase synthesis, sterility protocols vary
- Inconsistent. Request before purchase
- $120–$250 per 5mg vial
- Non-hyphenated format appears more often in grey-market or overseas suppliers. Not inherently lower quality but requires manual CoA verification
- 'AOD' or 'Fragment 176-191' (generic)
- Often absent or minimal documentation
- Unknown synthesis environment
- Rarely provided without request
- $80–$150 per 5mg vial
- Avoid. Generic labeling without batch verification suggests non-pharmaceutical sourcing with no traceability
- The table shows supplier behavior patterns, not peptide chemistry. Both AOD-9604 and AOD9604 can be research-grade if the supplier follows GMP synthesis and provides third-party testing. The hyphen correlates with formal documentation practices but doesn't guarantee quality on its own.
