Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the tissue-repair and immunomodulatory 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, 25 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 53,478, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.00. 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 0.90 % impurity against a 97.77 % 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 1418.7093 Da, computed from C62H98N16O22. 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.

Supplier certificate, as declared

The supplier's own figures for this lot, beside the independent measurement. Divergence is assessed against the batch median, not against this single report — see rule AX-R05.

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.

The gap between 97.77 % and the class specification should be read against an expanded uncertainty of roughly ±0.5 pp. A shortfall inside that band is not a finding; a shortfall well outside it is.
des_gly
The record is published in full, including the impurity table that explains it. A number below specification with a named impurity profile beside it is more useful than a number above specification with nothing beside it.
sodium_adduct
An unrecognised sodium adduct shifts an apparent monoisotopic mass by about 22 Da, which at this molecular weight is far more than -15.8 ppm. Rule that out first; it is the cheapest check available.
buyer_sourced
A retail vial at 97.77 % is worth more evidentially than a selected vial at a higher figure. That is the whole argument for recording provenance at all.
