Mass spectrometry confirmation for certificates of analysis: beyond HPLC purity, mass spec tells you the molecule's exact molecular weight.

This matches mine closely enough to be worth saying so out loud. Posting only so the count is not one.

Reconstituted peptide stability data for certificates of analysis: I had Janoshik test my reconstituted vial at day 1, day 14, and day 28 stored in the refrigerator.

Day 1: 100.5% purity
Day 14: 99.0% purity
Day 28: 99.5% purity

Minimal degradation over 28 days when properly refrigerated. This confirms the standard 28-day beyond-use date is appropriate. Beyond 28 days, I'd reconstitute a fresh vial to be safe.

Community-verified vendors for certificates of analysis: I maintain a spreadsheet of Janoshik-verified test results submitted by community members. Across 55 submitted tests:

  • 75% tested at ≥98% purity
  • 18% 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 reframing is the part I needed. Sending this to two other people who asked me the same thing last week.

Moderator note: the sourcing question belongs in the vendor section and has been split out. No action needed from anybody.
