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.

0363972781091714556 BPC-1578.20 min · 98.91 % 7.92 same trace · ×50 vertical expansion, baseline-corrected · main peak off-scale reporting threshold 0.05 % area 0481216202428 Retention time (min) Response (mAU)
Figure 1. RP-HPLC trace, 25 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 65,238, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 0.96. 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 0.73 % impurity against a 98.91 % 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.

Section 4

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.

lot_traceability
Lot TFC-2507-J2316 on the vial matches the certificate that came with it. That is the check every buyer can do in ten seconds and most do not.
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.
peak_integrator
Resolution to the nearest named impurity is reported on this record with no verdict attached, which is the correct handling. A threshold on that figure would penalise compounds for their own impurity profiles.
hplc_ola
Column temperature shifts selectivity by a few percent per ten degrees on peptides. Where two peaks are this close that is enough to matter and it is rarely on the report.
