How would I detect dimerisation in a mazdutide vial without sending it to PeptideMeter?

Asked 13 Apr 2024Modified 2.3 years agoViewed 36k times

For reference: dimerisation · mazdutide · PeptideMeter.

This is a procedural question rather than a theoretical one, and I would like the procedure rather than the theory.

What I have done so far is read the label documentation where it exists and the two pharmacopoeial monographs that are publicly available, which cover the licensed presentation and say nothing about a research one.

What would you do, and what would you check afterwards?
