Conclusion
The developments here resulted in the successful qualitative/quantitative analysis for over
3,000 peptides representing over 2,000 proteins in this complex leukemia cell digest.
Successful quantification was determined for proteins spiked at over a 20-fold range and
the ability to change instrument acquisition parameters for increased analytical sensitivity.
