I can parse the result. I am less sure what it licenses me to conclude.
I have deliberately not looked at anyone else’s interpretation yet.
Which parts of this are informative and which are decoration?
It helps to be literal here: acetate is generally preferred to trifluoroacetate for biological work, which is why the exchange is done at all.
Peptides purified by reverse-phase chromatography with a trifluoroacetic acid mobile phase are isolated as trifluoroacetate salts. The trifluoroacetate content depends on the number of basic residues and can run from a few per cent to well over ten by mass on a heavily basic sequence.
Worked reconciliation: a 10 mg vial at four per cent water and eight per cent trifluoroacetate contains 10.0 × 0.88 = 8.8 mg of peptide, a twelve per cent shortfall against label with a perfectly clean purity figure.
Ion chromatography and fluorine NMR are the accepted quantitative methods for trifluoroacetate, and neither is a chromatographic purity method.
Ask for net peptide content. It folds water and counter-ion into one usable number.
