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, 30 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 79,970, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.21. 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 0.04 % impurity against a 99.93 % 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 887.4964 Da, computed from C39H69N9O14. All ppm figures on this site are against monoisotopic values — see why that matters.

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 4

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.

peak_integrator
99.93 % on TB-500 sits at the top of what this index sees. Read it with the method: Janoshik ran a 30 min gradient here, and the compound fingerprint names a mass-identical species that a shorter run folds into the main peak. On this gradient the figure is well founded.
plate_count
Plate count on this run supports the separation claimed. A high purity figure from an inefficient column is a merged peak reported as a clean one; that is not what happened here.
aspartimide
Aspartimide formation at an Asp-Gly or Asp-Ser motif shows up as a pair of late-eluting satellites. They are not present above the reporting threshold on this trace.
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.
