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.

0394578901183615781 N-Acetyl Semax Amide7.46 min · 99.93 % 6.90 same trace · ×200 vertical expansion, baseline-corrected · main peak off-scale reporting threshold 0.05 % area 05101520253035 Retention time (min) Response (mAU)
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 76,912, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.18. 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 854.3806 Da, computed from C39H54N10O10S. All ppm figures on this site are against monoisotopic values — see why that matters.

Figure 2. ESI charge-state envelope, high-resolution instrument. Sticks are placed at m/z = (M + z × 1.007276)/z for the observed neutral mass of 854.3841 Da. 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.

Annotations 3

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.

mass_defect
Every named impurity on this record has a mass defect consistent with its structural assignment. That is the check that distinguishes an assignment from a guess.
lambda_214
Detection wavelength does not affect a mass determination but it does affect the purity figure sitting next to it. Both are stated on this record, which is the point.
buyer_sourced
Ordering under an unremarkable name and address is the whole method. It requires no cooperation from anybody and it produces the strongest evidence this index holds.
