RunAssessor: Extracted Proteomics Metadata from mzML Files

A 22.5 KB dataset containing metadata extracted from mass spectrometry data files using the RunAssessor tool. The dataset includes parameters like instrument models, isobaric labels, and ion tolerances, summarized in a standard SDRF file to facilitate data reuse. It was created by Marie Andken and last updated on April 16, 2026.

Use Cases

• Automating metadata annotation for proteomics data reprocessing based on extracted instrument parameters.
• Validating sample preparation protocols based on extracted parameters like phosphoenrichment and isobaric labels.
• Facilitating large-scale reanalysis of public proteomics data sets based on standardized SDRF file outputs.

Strengths

• Metadata is extracted directly from raw mass spectrometry data files, potentially improving reliability.
• Output is structured in a standard Sample and Data Relationship Format (SDRF) file.
• Tool was demonstrated on one complete data set and test files from 18 other data sets.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small at 22.5 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect bias inherent to the specific mzML files used for extraction.
