Compositions and methods for analyzing disulfide bonds are provided. An exemplary method includes preparing peptide standards having no disulfide bonds, scrambled disulfide bond peptide standards, and native disulfide bond peptide standards according to the sequence of the region of the protein drug product that includes the disulfide bond, digesting a sample of protein drug product into peptides, separating the protein drug product peptides, analyzing the protein drug product peptides and the peptide standards, identifying scrambled and native disulfide bond peptides by retention time, and quantifying the level of scrambled disulfide bond peptides. |
