Section 1

Analytical fingerprint

Hand-authored chemistry. These properties describe the substance and do not change when a record is added.

GHRP-6 has two tryptophans and shows the same oxidation ladder as MOTS-c. It is the index's most-submitted secretagogue and its purity distribution is the tightest of any compound tracked (IQR 0.4 pp), which makes it the best available control for detecting a lab's integration bias: a lab whose GHRP-6 median differs from the index median by more than 0.3 pp is almost certainly integrating differently, not measuring different material.

Figure 1. A representative GHRP-6 trace on the index reference method RG-2, constructed from this page's own numbers: the main peak carries the index median purity of 99.65 % area at the nominal retention time of 8.44 min, and each impurity peak carries the median area the index has observed for that named species at its characteristic retention offset. It is not a scan of any single report — every individual record's own chromatogram is on its own page. The lower panel is the same trace at a stated vertical expansion, baseline-corrected, so the impurities are visible; the main peak runs off-scale there by design. Baseline noise is seeded from the compound slug.

What the index has observed

Arithmetic over the 169 records the index holds. Aggregates on this page are computed over the records the index holds, which are not a random sample of the material on the market. Lots that get tested are lots someone chose to test. Read every figure here as a description of this dataset rather than as an estimate of a population.

Figure 2. Purity distribution across all 169 GHRP-6 records. Dashed line is this compound's median (99.65 %); the solid vertical is the index acceptance specification for the growth-hormone axis peptides class (99.0 %). Domain is fixed at 92–100 % on every purity histogram on this site so that compounds can be compared by eye — a wide distribution here is a hard compound, a narrow one is an easy one, and neither is a statement about the suppliers.
