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, 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 79,957, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.09. 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 2.02 % impurity against a 97.13 % 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 3748.9631 Da, computed from C172H265N43O51. 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 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.

pseudoproline
97.13 % on Liraglutide is below the index specification for the class. The interesting part is the distribution: palmitoyl bis-adduct (+238 Da) at 2.02 % is doing most of the work, and that species is a synthesis artefact rather than a degradation product. This is a process observation about lot CPC-2602-G9942, not a storage one.
peak_integrator
Reporting threshold matters at this level. Peaks below threshold are excluded from the impurity total but included in the purity denominator, which biases 97.13 % upward by a systematic tenth or so. The gap here is larger than that.
esi_tof
Mass, retention and impurity profile all agree on this record. Three independent constraints pointing the same way is the strongest identity evidence the index publishes.
