My HPLC chromatogram analysis for certificates of analysis — I sent my batch to Janoshik and here's what the results showed:
Main peak retention time: 15.4 minutes (consistent with semaglutide reference standard)
Peak purity: 98.4%
Related substances: 0.7% (single impurity at 9.4 minutes — likely a synthesis intermediate)
Mass spec: m/z 4113.6 (matches expected molecular weight)
This is a clean result. The mass spec confirmation is particularly important — it proves the molecule is actually semaglutide and not a substitution.
One thing that is still open after Dr.Martinez’s answer:
Was that from a primary source or from a summary of one?

Community-verified vendors for certificates of analysis: I maintain a spreadsheet of Janoshik-verified test results submitted by community members. Across 57 submitted tests:
- 78% tested at ≥98% purity
- 15% tested at 95-98% purity
- 7% tested at <95% purity (concerning)
The vendors with consistently high purity results are listed in the Vendor Directory. We update monthly based on new community submissions.

That is right, and it stops being right at the edges. The general case is well behaved; the interesting cases in this thread are all at the boundary where the general case breaks.

Genuinely useful, thank you. I had the facts and not the framework. I will report back once I have actually tried it.
