METHOD FOR EVALUATING DATA FROM MASS SPECTROMETRY, MASS SPECTROMETRY METHOD, AND MALDI-TOF MASS SPECTROMETER

摘要

The invention relates to a method to evaluate mass spectrometry data for the analysis of peptides from biological samples, particularly MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry data, comprising the steps of: providing expected mass defects; determining measured mass defects, i.e. the mass defects resulting from the mass spectrometry data; and comparing the measured mass defects with the expected mass defects.
