US researchers create peptide algorithm for LC-MS

However, this can create thousands of spectra with erroneous records caused by heavy isotopes and charge characteristics.
The scientists argue that existing algorithms for clarifying the output of LC-MS analysis can cause further problems as they are not designed to deal with overlapping spectra.
Now the team, from Texas A&M University, the University of Texas at San Antonio, the Translational Genomics Research Institution in Arizona and the University of Texas M D Anderson Cancer Center, have published their own algorithm, named BPDA, in BMC Bioinformatics.
BPDA uses a Bayesian approach to clarify the spectra retrieved from the LC-MS process, with minimal mean observed errors between the inferred and observed spectrum in each case.
BMC Bioinformatics is concerned with the latest statistical and computational methods for scientific analysis.
