[Question] how do you actually verify gradient
Quick one. Canada here.
purity works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.
Specifics: the route I used took 22 weeks and cost roughly what I expected. The admin was worse than the cost. The thing that would have saved me the most time was knowing which document to ask for at the start.
Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.

Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.
Gradient goblin mode: changed the solvent composition 12 times, finally got good resolution on a HPLC peak.
instrument quality is less important than analyst consistency
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.
Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.
Detection wavelength? method development and that changes at different wavelengths.
Detection wavelength?
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 92 weeks to accept.

a round-robin on baseline integration would be genuinely useful
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
the gradient is doing the separation work, not the column alone
