— Background
Quantitation of relative or absolute amounts of proteins by mass spectrometry can be prone to large errors. The use of MS/MS ion intensities and stable isotope labeling, a method called isotope labeling tandem mass spectrometry (SILT), decreases the effects of contamination from unrelate…
