A result reported without evidence that interference was assessed is not fully interpretable.{{r|usp85}}20Interference is the routine difficulty.

+22== Why it matters for peptide material ==
+23Endotoxin contamination arises from the water and the equipment, not usually from the synthesis. Water is the principal route: bacteria grow readily in stagnant water systems, and even after they are killed their lipopolysaccharide persists. Glassware carries endotoxin unless depyrogenated by dry heat, which is a more aggressive process than sterilisation.{{r|usp85}} Water-system control is accordingly treated as a manufacturing rather than a testing problem.{{r|ich_q7}}

+25Lyophilised research peptides are not manufactured as parenteral products and are not required to meet a parenteral endotoxin limit. Some certificates report endotoxin nonetheless; many do not. Absence of the determination is not evidence of a problem, and its presence is not evidence that the material is suitable for any particular purpose.
