Follow-up: Reconciling a label claim with a content assay Replied, post #25 · Analytics › COA interpretation · 12 Jun 2026 · 6 likes Amino acid analysis gives content: it hydrolyses the peptide and quantifies the residues. It measures the peptide content independent of chromatographic purity. Very…
