genuine question about certificate of analysis that I am slightly embarrassed to ask
Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.
The advice on related substances in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.
I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.
best — the order this archive was captured in
the method line is doing real work, not just window dressing
the counterion is part of the mass you paid for
the batch number or it did not happen

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
Water content was 3.8%, acetate was 6.2%, purity was 99%, but net peptide was only 90% of the label weight. Perfectly honest, just chemistry.
This is the correct framing. The COA structure matters as much as the number.
redact your own name, not the vendor's batch details
Strongly agree. Mass% and area% are answering different questions on the same document.

The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.
no "is this good?" without saying what the compound and claimed purity are

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
