10A purity determination by [[High-performance liquid chromatography|chromatography]] establishes that one species dominates a sample; it does not establish which species. These are separate questions and require separate determinations. A [[Certificate of analysis|certificate]] reporting purity but no identity leaves the more fundamental of the two unanswered.{{r|usp1503}}10A purity determination by [[High-performance liquid chromatography|chromatography]] establishes that one species dominates a sample; it does not establish which species.

+12Peptides ionised by [[Electrospray ionisation|electrospray]] carry multiple charges, so a single peptide produces a series of peaks at different charge states. The instrument software deconvolves this envelope into one neutral mass, and it is that deconvolved mass that appears on a report.{{r|aebersold2003,usp736}}

13Electrospray disperses a solution into charged droplets in an electric field; solvent evaporates and ions are released into the gas phase. It is a soft technique — the molecule survives largely intact — which is why it suits peptides and proteins. Matrix-assisted laser desorption is the other common soft method and tends to produce singly charged ions.{{r|aebersold2003}}15Electrospray disperses a solution into charged droplets in an electric field; solvent evaporates and ions are released into the gas phase.
