Tirzepatide is a synthetic peptide that functions as a dual agonist of the GLP-1 and GIP receptors. It is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. By mimicking the actions of both glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), tirzepatide enhances insulin secretion, reduces blood sugar levels, promotes satiety, and aids in weight loss.
Tirzepatide can be retained and analyzed using the Primesep B stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an gradientc method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and TFA. Detection is performed using UV at 280 nm.
