Section 1

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, 28 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 50,511, and skew follows the reported asymmetry factor of 1.19. 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 1.58 % impurity against a 97.77 % 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	IGF-1 LR3 — main peak	15.62	4,751,925	97.77	—
2	disulfide-scrambled isomer	16.20	76,793	1.58	0.000
3	aggregated dimer	18.61	13,123	0.27	+9105.241
4	oxidised Met59 (+16 Da)	14.95	11,665	0.24	+15.995
5	des-13-residue N-extension (native IGF-1)	13.53	3,402	0.07	-1441.712
6	truncated (1-70)	13.81	3,402	0.07	-1385.688
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 9105.2412 Da, computed from C400H625N111O116S9. 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 9105.2667 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 (%)
11+	828.7565	828.7588	0.0023	9.0
10+	911.5314	911.5339	0.0025	56.8
9+	1012.7007	1012.7036	0.0029	100.0
8+	1139.1624	1139.1656	0.0032	56.3
7+	1301.7560	1301.7597	0.0037	8.9

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.

Component	Determination	%w/w of cake
Water	Karl Fischer	5.50
Counter-ion (acetate)	ion chromatography	4.73
Residual solvent + inorganic residue	estimated	0.20
Total peptide content	by difference	89.57
Total		100.00 CLOSES

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)	98.33	97.77	divergence +0.56 pp vs batch median
Total impurities (% area)	1.67	2.23
Largest single impurity (% area)	0.67	1.58
Water (%)	3.7	5.50
Counter-ion (%)	not stated	4.73
Peptide content (%w/w)	not stated	89.57
Endotoxin (EU/mg)	0.18	not determined
Method stated on certificate	NO	—	no method section — the result cannot be reconciled against any other

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: Supplier-supplied
Evidentiary weight: Weaker evidence. Read with the caveat below.
Chain of custody: Supplier despatch → laboratory direct (courier, cold pack, 9 d) → assay. Submitter did not handle the vial.
Assay date: 24 May 2025
Submitted to the index: 29 May 2025
Laboratory: PeptideMeter, Tallinn, Estonia
Method basis: 28 min gradient · high-resolution MS
Verification status: VERIFIED

What this report does not establish

That the material is free of bacterial endotoxin. Endotoxin was not measured. No chromatographic result bears on it.
That the material is sterile. Sterility was not tested.
That the protein is correctly folded. Reverse-phase chromatography measures hydrophobic heterogeneity. A correctly-massed, chromatographically-homogeneous recombinant protein can be entirely mis-paired at its disulfides. Purity here is an upper bound and nothing more.
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.
