Results

Measured against the index acceptance specification for the growth-hormone axis peptides class. A specification is a decision the index made; a result is a measurement. See where each threshold came from.

Section 2

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 68,026, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.03. 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 0.39 % impurity against a 99.43 % main peak is a line two pixels tall; the main peak runs off-scale there by design.

#	Peak	RT	Area (µV·s)	% area	Δ mass (Da)
1	GHRP-6 — main peak	8.33	4,832,606	99.43	—
2	oxidised Trp (+16 Da)	7.99	18,955	0.39	+15.995
3	[D-Trp]-epimer	8.21	3,888	0.08	0.000
4	bis-oxidised Trp (+32 Da)	7.75	2,430	0.05	+31.990
5	des-Lys (−128 Da)	8.11	2,430	0.05	-128.095
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.

Section 3

Mass spectrum and identity

Theoretical monoisotopic mass 872.4446 Da, computed from C46H56N12O6. All ppm figures on this site are against monoisotopic values — see why that matters.

Figure 2. ESI charge-state envelope, high-resolution instrument. Sticks are placed at m/z = (M + z × 1.007276)/z for the observed neutral mass of 872.4449 Da. Sodium (+21.982/z) and potassium (+37.956/z) adducts are shown where the parent charge state exceeds 25 % relative abundance; they are adducts of the same molecule and are not impurities.

Charge	Theoretical m/z	Observed m/z	Δ m/z	Rel. abundance (%)
2+	437.2296	437.2297	0.0001	57.6
1+	873.4519	873.4522	0.0003	100.0

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.

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	99.43	divergence +0.47 pp vs batch median
Total impurities (% area)	0.10	0.57
Largest single impurity (% area)	0.04	0.39
Water (%)	not stated	5.66
Counter-ion (%)	not stated	7.15
Peptide content (%w/w)	not stated	not determined
Endotoxin (EU/mg)	not stated	0.71
Method stated on certificate	YES	—	column, gradient and wavelength given

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, 34 d) → laboratory (courier, ambient, 5 d) → assay.
Assay date: 24 Jun 2024
Submitted to the index: 09 Jul 2024
Laboratory: Janoshik Analytical, Ostrava, Czechia
Method basis: 30 min gradient · high-resolution MS
Verification status: VERIFIED

What this report does not establish

How much of the named compound is in the vial. Peptide content was not determined, so recovered mass cannot be calculated and the label claim cannot be checked.
That the material is sterile. Sterility was not tested.
That any other vial in the same lot has the same composition. One vial was tested. Within-lot vial-to-vial variation in this index has a median of 0.28 pp and a 90th percentile of 0.74 pp.
That any other lot from the same supplier has the same composition. Batch-to-batch variation is larger than within-batch variation for every supplier here.
That the material is suitable for administration to a human or an animal. These are research compounds. No result on this site is a safety assessment and the index takes no position on use.
That the material was manufactured by the supplier that sold it. Contract synthesis is normal in this market and twenty-nine batches in the index fingerprint to a bulk from a different company than the one named on the label.
