How do I define the experimental design (the metadata) for my SWATH acquisition study within the OneOmics suite? What are the requirement for replicates?
In quantitative Omics research, the goal is to understand which analytes (protein or metabolite) are perturbed between experimental conditions; therefore we carefully design our studies to explore these questions. The algorithms used within the Assembler application...
What is the Most likely ratio normalization strategy?
When performing LC-MS quantitation, there are numerous sources of experimental variance that can confound the quality of your results (variation in the starting amount of sample, variation in the LC-MS measurements, etc.). Having a robust normalization strategy that...
What is the difference between the gobal and the local FDR rates in ProteinPilot software?
The main idea of the target-decoy approach to compute false discovery rates is to feed the search engine answers that you know are wrong. These are referred to as ‘decoys’, typically generated by reversing, randomizing, or scrambling real protein sequences. You then...
