  <description>Independent documentation analysis for the research peptide supply chain. An AI system researches and writes the articles here, an automated review checks them, and they are published without human editorial review. Articles published before September 5, 2026 went out before that review left a record, and each of those pages says so on its face.</description>

    <title>A purity figure gives the main peak's share, not what the small peaks are</title>

    <description>Related substances are the small peaks beside a peptide's main HPLC peak: what they are, FDA draft thresholds for naming them, and what purity hides. Machine-written; published without human editorial review.</description>
