Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the incretin analogues and co-agonists 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 51,747, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.19. 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 0.43 % impurity against a 99.23 % 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 4111.0524 Da, computed from C187H291N45O59. 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.

ppm_error
-35.8 ppm is outside the class limit and outside what a calibrated instrument should produce at this mass. Before anyone reads it as a compound difference: calibration drift on PeptideMeter's side is far more likely. The chromatography is normal and retention at 17.31 min is where Semaglutide belongs.
Index data team

Recorded as an identity-not-established finding rather than an identity failure, per rule AX-R01. A re-measurement has been requested from the submitter.

charge_envelope
The envelope on this record spans enough charge states to support a deconvolution. Where it does not, the algorithm extrapolates and the reported mass acquires an error with no physical cause at all.
peak_integrator
The resolution figure sits in the system-suitability block with no PASS or FAIL beside it. That is deliberate: the index reports it and adjudicates nothing against it.
aib_two
On the multi-Aib analogues the des-Aib species elutes a third of a minute early and routinely arrives as a leading shoulder rather than a peak. That is a compound property and every laboratory faces it.
