Analyst

An analyst is an individual who performs analysis of a topic. The term may refer to one of the following professions:

Analyst (journal)

Analyst is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of analytical chemistry, bioanalysis, and detection science. It is published by the Royal Society of Chemistry. The executive editor is May Copsey.

Analyst was established in 1876 by the Society for Analytical Chemistry as The Analyst and obtained its current name in 2009. According to the Journal Citation Reports, it has a 2014 impact factor of 4.107. It is abstracted and indexed in MEDLINE and Analytical Abstracts.

In 1999, the society closed the journal Analytical Communications because it felt that the material submitted to that journal would be best in a new communications section of Analyst. Predecessor journals of Analytical Communications were:

List of mass spectrometry software

Mass spectrometry software is software used for data acquisition, analysis, or representation in mass spectrometry.

Proteomics software

In protein mass spectrometry, tandem mass spectrometry (also known as MS/MS or MS²) experiments are used for protein/peptide identification. Peptide identification algorithms fall into two broad classes: database search and de novo search. The former search takes place against a database containing all amino acid sequences assumed to be present in the analyzed sample, whereas the latter infers peptide sequences without knowledge of genomic data.

Database search algorithms

De novo sequencing algorithms

De novo peptide sequencing algorithms are based, in general, on the approach proposed in Bartels et al. (1990).
