These various degradation routes and structural changes result in a spectrum of key degradants that must be monitored: Deamidation (Asn to Aspartate or isoAspartate) Oxidation (methionine or tryptophan) Truncation or deacylation (synthesis/stress-related) Aggregation (thermal, mechanical, or pH shifts) Meeting regulatory expectations requires stability-indicating methods that accurately quantify these species, often at thresholds of 0.5% (or 0.1% for unknowns)
