<p>A data processing device according to the invention comprises a processor unit adapted to process a plurality of initial data vectors provided by a chromatograph and/or a mass spectrometer, the processing being carried out in one, two or more processing steps producing items of processed data, and a storage unit adapted to save and retrieve initial data vectors and/or items of processed data, in particular processed data vectors or identified compounds, and/or items of additional data, in particular properties of the sample introduced in the mass spectrometer. Each item of processed data and/or additional data is connected to at least one initial data vector, and wherein the processor unit is adapted to group, select and/or modify initial data vectors and/or items of processed data according to one or more items of additional data. The invention further pertains to a mass spectrometry setup and a method for identifying and/or quantifying peptides and/or proteins and/or metabolites.</p> |
