Batch-specific documentation may include HPLC purity, identity confirmation and lot information. Refer to the supplied COA or the COA policy for current documentation scope.

Reconstitution and handling

Allow lyophilised material to equilibrate before opening to reduce condensation risk. Add validated solvent slowly down the vial wall, avoid vigorous shaking, and record the final concentration in the laboratory notebook or LIMS.

Use aseptic technique, calibrated pipettes or syringes, and validated diluent choices for the assay system. Reconstituted materials should be aliquoted where appropriate to reduce repeated freeze-thaw exposure.

Storage

Store unopened material according to the stated condition: -20°C recommended (research-only). Keep vials sealed, dry and protected from light. Reconstituted solutions should be stored under validated laboratory conditions and discarded according to internal SOPs and applicable research-waste rules.

Research-use statement

O-304 25 mg is sold by Peptide Shop for research use only. It is not a medicine, food, cosmetic, supplement or diagnostic product. Buyers are responsible for ensuring lawful purchase, storage, handling and disposal under their institutional and local requirements.

FAQs

What is O-304 used for in research?

O-304 is studied as a direct AMPK activator for metabolic research, including glucose metabolism, lipid oxidation, and energy homeostasis.

How does O-304 work?

O-304 directly activates AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) by binding to the β1 subunit, enhancing cellular energy regulation.

What is AMPK?

AMPK is a master metabolic regulator that senses cellular energy status and coordinates anabolic/catabolic processes. It's activated by low energy states.

How should O-304 be stored?

Store O-304 at -20°C protected from light and moisture. Reconstituted solutions should be used promptly.

What purity is your O-304?

Our O-304 is ≥99% pure as verified by HPLC. Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis.

How is O-304 different from metformin?

O-304 directly activates AMPK while metformin works indirectly through mitochondrial inhibition. O-304 is more selective.

How do I prepare O-304 solutions?

Dissolve in DMSO for stock solutions. Dilute in aqueous buffers for working concentrations.

What sizes are available?

O-304 is available in 10mg, 25mg, and 50mg quantities.

What is O-304?

O-304 (ATX-304) is a pan-AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) activator studied for effects on glucose metabolism, lipid oxidation, and mitochondrial biogenesis. It is a small-molecule research compound rather than a peptide. CAS number 2060571-02-8.

What is AMPK and why is it studied?

AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) is a master energy-sensing enzyme that regulates cellular metabolism in response to energy depletion. It is studied as a research target for metabolic disease, obesity, diabetes, and longevity pathways. O-304 activates all AMPK isoforms.

Why is O-304 sold as 3 g powder?

O-304 is supplied in a 3 g bulk powder format for research applications requiring larger quantities, such as in-vivo animal model studies, stability testing, and formulation development.

What solvents are compatible with O-304?

O-304 has limited water solubility. It is typically dissolved in DMSO or ethanol for stock preparation, then diluted into aqueous buffer or cell culture media at working concentrations.
