Fragment 176-191 (5mg)
Fragment 176-191 is the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, isolated from the rest of the molecule. Structure-activity work identified this stretch as the portion associated with lipolytic activity in adipose tissue.

About Fragment 176-191 (5mg)
This is the unmodified fragment. AOD 9604 adds an N-terminal tyrosine to the same sequence, so the two should not be substituted for one another.
Like everything in the Peptides range, this vial is lyophilized, sealed, and accompanied by third-party purity documentation for its batch.

Handling, reconstitution and storage
Store the sealed vial of lyophilized Fragment 176-191 at -20°C, protected from light. Allow it to reach room temperature before opening so that moisture does not condense onto the powder.
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water directed down the inside wall of the vial rather than onto the cake, and swirl instead of shaking — mechanical agitation is the most common cause of degradation in peptide handling. Keep reconstituted solution at 2-8°C and validate its working life for your own assay conditions.
Frequently asked questions
- How is Fragment 176-191 (5mg) supplied and stored?
- It ships as a lyophilized powder in a sealed vial. Store the lyophilized product at -20°C protected from light; once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, keep it refrigerated at 2-8°C and use it within the window your protocol validates.
- Is a certificate of analysis available?
- Yes. Every batch is independently tested by a US laboratory and verified to exceed 99% purity by HPLC/MS. Request the COA for your batch number and we will send the report.
- How long does delivery take?
- Orders dispatch within two business days. Delivery is free within the USA on orders over $200.
- Can Fragment 176-191 (5mg) be used in humans or animals?
- No. This product is sold strictly for research, laboratory and analytical purposes. Human and animal consumption is prohibited.
