Towards Reliable, Reproducible and Standardized MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging

 
Quality assessment, standardization and reproducibility in MALDI MSI - MALDISTAR

The MALDISTAR project aims at improving standardization and reproducibility for MALDI imaging applications. Focusing on pilot scenarios in imaging of peptides and small molecules from FFPE and fresh-frozen tissue, we are investigating and developing methods for quality assessment, data normalization and enhanced data comparability. 

01 / QQ Metrics

Develop quantitative quality metrics (QQ Metrics) that allow evaluating whether a given MALDI MSI dataset should be rejected or is of sufficient quality for a given analysis task, or whether multiple datasets show sufficiently similar characteristics in order to be analyzed collectively.

MALDISTAR is kindly funded by the Klaus Tschira Foundation (grant 00.010.2019).
