Conclusion
The two-step purification process achieves exceptional retatrutide quality:
Primary Purification
- 82% crude → 98.54% purity (+16.54% absolute improvement)
- 86.85% yield from crude material
- Maximum single impurity: 0.5%
- BS C18 column with HAC/ACN system
- 210nm primary detection wavelength
Secondary Purification
- Final purity 99.5% (ultra-pure grade)
- Maximum single impurity: 0.25% (50% reduction)
- 89.9% yield from primary fraction
- Ammonium acetate/chloride buffer system (pH6.5)
- 280nm primary detection for final QC
Overall Process Performance
Combined Yield: 78.08% (86.85% × 89.9%)
Total Purity Gain: 82% → 99.5% (+17.5%)
Impurity Reduction: From 18% → 0.5% → 0.25%
Note: The BS C18 column demonstrates excellent performance for both purification steps, with buffer system modification and wavelength optimization for final polishing. The process delivers ultra-pure retatrutide suitable for pharmaceutical applications.
