chromatogram: what the trials say vs what this community says
Right, the integration question again, but with numbers this time.
I have 17 data points over 14 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.
The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 56, not week 10. People give up long before the interesting part.
Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.

Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.
related substances are where the story lives, not the main peak
Ran the same vial on two columns, different purity, both right, different separation. Method matters more than equipment.
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with purity, not with what you concluded.
Disagree.
Adding to this: purity is doing more work than the comment implies.

co-elution is real and LC-MS is usually not enough to resolve it

Yeah, the chromatogram profile matters more than the headline number.
Slight fix: the number was 97.2, not 97.4. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
Not to be pedantic but HPLC and purity are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
two labs, two different baselines, two different purity numbers, both honest
state the method: column, gradient, detection wavelength, injection volume
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.
Removed a chain here.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
area% and mass% are not the same and this whole post conflates them

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
Gradient goblin mode: changed the solvent composition 3 times, finally got good resolution on a LC-MS peak.
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.

Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.
Injection volume and flow rate? Those affect resolution.
