1 Introduction

Here we provide an experiment data package containing all the spread sheets used for figures and supplemental figures published in Kockmann et al. (2016). The raw instrument files are accessible for registered users through http://fgcz-bfabric.uzh.ch as project 1959. Raw LC-MS data from all five platforms were imported into Skyline 3.1, see MacLean et al. (2010), processed, and are available though https://panoramaweb.org/labkey/MSQC1.url when published. This package contains data.frame objects exported by Skyline making the data available for the R world.

2 MSQC1 Peptide properties

2.1 Figure - reference L:H ratio versus the on-column amount

The scatter-plot displays the reference L:H ratio versus the on-column amount of heavy peptide of the MSQC1 peptide mix. Note, x and y axis are drawn in log scale.

4 Graphics

4.1 Figure - Sigma mix peptide level signals

Sigma mix peptide level signals - The graph displays the log2 L:H area ratios of eight technical replicates over 14 peptides from five MS platforms. The 14 panels were ordered by the on column amount of heavy peptide per vial (0.8, 4, 20, 40, 80, 200, 500, 1000 fmol). The black line indicates the theoretical L:H ratio as reported in the QC certificate by Sigma-Aldrich. In a perfect setting all data points would be located close to the black line indicating a perfect match between theoretical and measured log2 L:H ratios. The dark gray boxes correspond to a 0.5 and the light grey boxes to a deviation of 1 from the expected value (black line).

       auto.key = list(space = "right", points = TRUE, lines = FALSE, cex=1))

4.3 Figure - Ratio stability upon analyte dilution

Ratio stability upon analyte dilution - Each scatter-plot panel displays the experimental derived log2 L:H ratios versus the relative amount. The panels are ordered by the SIL on column amount (lower left to upper right). Color grouping was done by instrument. The loess fit curves were added for visualizing the trend. The SIL value given in each panel legend is valid for the relative amount of 1. The horizontal black line indicates the theoretical log2 L:H ratio.

4.4 Figure - Accuracy

Accuracy - The graph displays in each panel a sensitivity curves for a given relative amount.
