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 | 19.88 | 4,779,629 | 98.34 | — |
| 2 | des-Aib2 analogue | 19.53 | 50,061 | 1.03 | -85.053 |
| 3 | trifluoroacetyl adduct (+96 Da) | 20.81 | 14,095 | 0.29 | +95.982 |

| 6 | Met(O) sulfoxide (+16 Da) | 19.14 | 1,458 | 0.03 | +15.995 |
| 7 | [D-Aib13]-diastereomer | 19.69 | 1,458 | 0.03 | 0.000 |
| 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.

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 | 5.23 |
| Counter-ion (TFA) | ion chromatography | 5.87 |
| Residual solvent + inorganic residue | estimated | 0.48 |
| Total peptide content | by difference | 88.42 |
| Total | 100.00 CLOSES | |
