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.
| # | Peak | RT | Area (µV·s) | % area | Δ mass (Da) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | GHRP-2 — main peak | 7.74 | 4,817,053 | 99.11 | — |
| 2 | oxidised Trp (+16 Da) | 7.44 | 18,955 | 0.39 | +15.995 |
| 3 | [D-2-Nal]-epimer | 7.62 | 15,067 | 0.31 | 0.000 |
| 4 | C-terminal free acid (+1 Da) | 7.87 | 4,860 | 0.10 | +0.984 |
| 5 | des-Lys (−128 Da) | 7.54 | 4,374 | 0.09 | -128.095 |
| Closure check — purity + Σ impurities | 100.00 | CLOSES | |||
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.
| Charge | Theoretical m/z | Observed m/z | Δ m/z | Rel. abundance (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2+ | 409.7210 | 409.7180 | -0.0030 | 55.4 |
| 1+ | 818.4348 | 818.4288 | -0.0060 | 100.0 |
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.
| Component | Determination | %w/w of cake |
|---|---|---|
| Water | Karl Fischer | 2.15 |
| Counter-ion (acetate) | ion chromatography | 6.70 |
| Residual solvent + inorganic residue | estimated | 0.90 |
| Total peptide content | by difference | 90.25 |
| Total | 100.00 CLOSES | |
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.
| Figure | Supplier COA | This report | Index note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purity (% area) | 98.89 | 99.11 | divergence -0.22 pp vs batch median |
| Total impurities (% area) | 1.11 | 0.89 | |
| Largest single impurity (% area) | not stated | 0.39 | |
| Water (%) | 0.9 | 2.15 | |
| Counter-ion (%) | not stated | 6.70 | |
| Peptide content (%w/w) | not stated | 90.25 | |
| Endotoxin (EU/mg) | not stated | not determined | |
| Method stated on certificate | NO | — | no method section — the result cannot be reconciled against any other |
Provenance and caveats
Where a sample came from changes the weight of the evidence. The index treats it as a first-class field.
