Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the neuroactive and cognitive 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, 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 80,233, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.14. 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 0.18 % impurity against a 99.60 % 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 813.3541 Da, computed from C37H51N9O10S. 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.

aib_coupling
Hindered couplings are where a synthesis loses purity, and the deletion products they leave are the first thing to look for. On this record they are not there in quantity.
tbu_residual
Residual side-chain protection at +56 Da is the classic silent passenger on a high-purity trace. Nothing at that offset above threshold on this record.
quad_unit
Instrument class matters here. A unit-resolution determination reported to a tenth of a ppm is reporting a precision the hardware does not have, and +33.2 ppm on such a determination is largely noise.
sodium_adduct
Retention at 6.67 min is consistent with Semax, and retention is an independent constraint on identity. A mass error of +33.2 ppm against a correct retention time points at the measurement rather than at the vial.
