Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the growth-hormone axis peptides class. A specification is a decision the index made; a result is a measurement. See where each threshold came from.

Chromatogram and peak integration

The figure is drawn from the table. It is not an independent illustration — if a number in the table changed, the trace would change with it.

Figure 1. RP-HPLC trace, 35 min gradient, 214 nm. Drawn from the peak-integration table below: peak positions are the reported retention times, peak areas are the reported area percentages, peak widths follow the reported plate count of 59,706, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.25. Baseline noise is seeded from the report ID and is illustrative. The lower panel is the same trace at a stated vertical expansion with the slow gradient drift subtracted, because at full scale a 0.29 % impurity against a 99.26 % main peak is a line two pixels tall; the main peak runs off-scale there by design.

Reporting threshold 0.05 % area. Peaks below it are not reported and are therefore excluded from the total, which overstates purity by their sum — see peak integration.

Mass spectrum and identity

Theoretical monoisotopic mass 817.4275 Da, computed from C45H55N9O6. All ppm figures on this site are against monoisotopic values — see why that matters.

Sodium (+21.982/z) and potassium (+37.956/z) adducts are shown where the parent charge state exceeds 25 % relative abundance; they are adducts of the same molecule and are not impurities.

Gravimetric mass balance

Water, counter-ion, residual and total peptide content are exhaustive and mutually exclusive categories. They must account for 100 % of the cake mass. The index closes this to within 0.02 pp and the build asserts it.

Annotations 5

Signed technical comments from index contributors. Not a discussion forum — annotations question or contextualise the result, and the data team replies where a reply is warranted.

scale_up_delta
14.39 EU/mg but the material was passed through a sterile sterile filter. Some filters leach endotoxins; the measurement does not distinguish material from filter contribution.
underfill_3to1
Endotoxin tested twice on this lot with varying EU/mg spread. Endotoxin variability in retained samples is larger than most labs acknowledge and the single measurement here is not definitive.
sig_figs
Endotoxin undetectable means below the detection limit of on Nordanalyt's system. That does not mean zero and may not reflect actual endotoxin. The cutoff is useful for screening; the absence of a number is not a guarantee.
dispute_log
Purity 99.26 % and endotoxin 14.39 EU/mg are unrelated — purity measures synthesis quality, endotoxin measures fill-step water quality. The combination here is coherent and expected together.
Endotoxin assay but no bacterial viability or total count. The two are independent: dead endotoxin-bearing bacteria contribute to the burden, living ones that produce endotoxins do not.
