Mass Spectrometry Quantitative Proteomic Workflows

Mass spectroscopy is a technology for determining, among other things, the size and weight of protein molecules in a biological sample.  It is used in biomarker discovery, but the technology lacks automation for high throughput processing which, otherwise, would put it on a par with genomic technologies.  This piece argues what needs to be done to make proteomics a much more useful diagnostic.
