Comparative analysis to guide quality improvements in proteomics
Matthias Mann1
Abstract
The potential of mass spectrometry–based proteomics to advance biology and biomedicine is nearly unlimited but so is its potential for generating bad data. Apart from the pursuit of technological progress in protocols and instruments, stringent comparative analyses of different approaches are critical for fully developing the discipline.
