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.
| # | Peak | RT | Area (µV·s) | % area | Δ mass (Da) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | TB-500 — main peak | 8.40 | 4,838,439 | 99.55 | — |
| 2 | C-terminal amide (−1 Da) | 8.59 | 11,179 | 0.23 | -0.984 |
| 3 | des-Gln truncate (−128 Da) | 8.14 | 4,374 | 0.09 | -128.059 |
| 4 | des-acetyl TB-500 (−42 Da) | 7.85 | 3,888 | 0.08 | -42.011 |
| 5 | [D-Thr]-diastereomer | 8.28 | 2,430 | 0.05 | 0.000 |
| 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 887.4964 Da, computed from C39H69N9O14. 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+ | 444.7555 | 444.7553 | -0.0002 | 51.9 |
| 1+ | 888.5037 | 888.5033 | -0.0004 | 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 | 5.36 |
| Counter-ion (acetate) | ion chromatography | 5.08 |
| Residual solvent + inorganic residue | estimated | 0.58 |
| Total peptide content | by difference | 88.98 |
| 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) | 99.90 | 99.55 | divergence -0.03 pp vs batch median |
| Total impurities (% area) | 0.10 | 0.45 | |
| Largest single impurity (% area) | 0.06 | 0.23 | |
| Water (%) | 4.9 | 5.36 | |
| Counter-ion (%) | 8.3 | 5.08 | |
| Peptide content (%w/w) | 86.2 | 88.98 | |
| Endotoxin (EU/mg) | not stated | 1.32 | |
| 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.
- Sample provenance
- Buyer-sourced
- Evidentiary weight
- Strongest available evidence in this index.
- Chain of custody
- Retail purchase → submitter (2–8 °C, 18 d) → laboratory (courier, ambient, 6 d) → assay.

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.
