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.
| # | Peak | RT | Area (µV·s) | % area | Δ mass (Da) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tirzepatide — main peak | 16.78 | 4,806,361 | 98.89 | — |
| 2 | [D-Aib13]-diastereomer | 16.62 | 23,329 | 0.48 | 0.000 |
| 3 | trifluoroacetyl adduct (+96 Da) | 17.55 | 17,983 | 0.37 | +95.982 |
| 4 | Met(O) sulfoxide (+16 Da) | 16.16 | 8,749 | 0.18 | +15.995 |
| 5 | C20 diacid mono-amide | 18.13 | 1,944 | 0.04 | +0.984 |
| 6 | tirzepatide dimer | 20.10 | 1,944 | 0.04 | +4810.410 |
| 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 4810.4103 Da, computed from C225H348N48O68. 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 (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7+ | 688.2087 | 688.2044 | -0.0043 | 8.8 |

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 | 4.57 |
| Counter-ion (TFA) | ion chromatography | 8.33 |
| Residual solvent + inorganic residue | estimated | 0.81 |
| Total peptide content | by difference | 86.29 |
| Total | 100.00 CLOSES | |
