This Certificate of Analysis covers batch LZ-SG-260825 of Semaglutide, manufactured on August 25, 2026 and analysed on August 26, 2026. Purity is 99.53% by RP-HPLC, against a specification of ≥99.0%. Identity was confirmed by mass spectrometry at 1029.44, within the expected [M+4H]⁴⁺ = 1029.40 ± 0.5. The batch was released on August 27, 2026 and independently confirmed by Janoshik Analytical, working to ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Every figure below is specific to this batch.

Positive-ion electrospray spectrum for this batch.
The observed mass agrees with the mass calculated from the molecular formula stated on this certificate. No adducts, truncations or oxidation products were observed above 0.5% of the base peak.
Orthogonal identity confirmation

Method
Requirement
Result
Amino acid analysis
Vapour-phase hydrolysis in 6 M HCl at 110 °C for 24 h, pre-column derivatisation, ion-exchange separation
Molar ratios within ± 10% of theory for each residue
All residues within ± 5.9% of theory
Amino acid analysis measures composition directly and is independent of both the retention time and the mass, so it confirms the material is the peptide claimed rather than an isobaric one.
