Does fibrillation of semaglutide at 25 °C show up as a loss of content or of purity?

Asked 25 Jun 2024Modified 2.1 years agoViewed 4.2k times

The specifics, since they change the answer: fibrillation · semaglutide · 25 °C.

I would like the mechanism, because I want to be able to reason about the cases nobody has written about.

I have tried to reason it out from first principles and got to two contradictory conclusions.

Can someone derive this rather than assert it?
