  • The table below compares storage conditions for reconstituted AOD-9604, expected stability duration, and failure modes for each method.
  • Refrigeration (recommended)
  • 2–8°C
  • 28 days
  • Slow oxidation of methionine, gradual deamidation, microbial contamination beyond 28 days
  • Gold standard for reconstituted peptides. Balances stability and accessibility for multi-week protocols
  • Freezing at −20°C
  • −15 to −25°C
  • Not recommended post-reconstitution
  • Ice crystal formation disrupts tertiary structure; freeze-thaw cycles cause irreversible aggregation
  • Suitable only for lyophilised powder pre-reconstitution. Destroys reconstituted peptide integrity
  • Room temperature
  • 20–25°C
  • 4–6 hours maximum
  • Rapid hydrolysis, oxidation, aggregation; benzyl alcohol degradation
  • Acceptable only during active use or short transport. Never for overnight storage
  • Refrigerator door storage
  • 4–14°C (fluctuating)
  • 14–21 days
  • Repeated temperature cycling accelerates oxidation and aggregation
  • Avoid. Temperature instability compounds degradation risk over weeks
