mzQC:
Reporting and exchange format for mass spectrometry quality control data from HUPO-PSI
For whom is mzQC?
The format is designed to work as handover format as well as a report format and archive format as well. As such, we expect it to greatly benefit researchers to better understand their data and improve experimental protocols, instrument operators keeping track of their mass spectrometer statuses, and analysts wanting a better insight to the data they analyse.
