Overview

Analytical method development for peptides requires specialized approaches to address their unique physicochemical properties.

Key Methods

  • RP-HPLC: Primary purity and identity method
  • LC-MS: Molecular weight confirmation
  • Amino acid analysis: Quantitation and composition
  • Peptide mapping: Sequence confirmation

Validation Parameters

  • Specificity and selectivity
  • Linearity and range
  • Accuracy and precision
  • Limit of detection and quantitation

Challenges

Aggregation, counterion effects, and multiple charge states complicate peptide analytical method development.
