Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the metabolic and mitochondrial 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.

0337567491012413498 SS-31 (Elamipretide)8.41 min · 97.83 % 8.24 same trace · ×50 vertical expansion, baseline-corrected · main peak off-scale reporting threshold 0.05 % area 051015202530 Retention time (min) Response (mAU)
Figure 1. RP-HPLC trace, 28 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 67,930, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.08. 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 1.17 % impurity against a 97.83 % 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.

Section 4

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 2

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.

method_absent
A resolution figure without a stated column and gradient is uninterpretable. Both are on this record, which is why the figure is worth printing at all.
gc_headspace
Residual solvent to the ICH limits is a stated requirement in regulated manufacture and an optional extra here. It is the slot most likely to hide something.
