has topic Textual format Mass spectrometry data format mzTab For mass spectrometry-based chemical profiling data (including metabolomics), there is a derived (but incompatible) format mzTab-M (also named mzTab 2.0, http://edamontology.org/format_4058), and its lipidomics version mzTab-L (http://edamontology.org/format_4059). mzTab is a light-weight, tab-delimited format for mass spectrometry-based proteomics data. The reference implementation of mzTab in Java is https://github.com/PRIDE-Archive/jmzTab (maintenance stopped in 2022). mzTab is alternatively named mzTab 1.0, as opposed to mzTab 2.0 (and 2.1), which is the incompatible mzTab-M format for chemical profiling e.g. metabolomics. More ontologies and controlled vocabularies can be used in certain cases: Unit Ontology, ChEBI, OBI, PSI-MOD, Unimod database, PRIDE CV, NEWT, BRENDA tissue, Cell Type ontology. 1.13 mzTab 1.0 For more detailed metadata, there are formats such as mzIdentML (http://edamontology.org/format_3247) and mzQuantML (http://edamontology.org/format_3248). 2025-11 Matúš Kalaš Proteomics
