| Quantitation: Replicate protocolThe replicate protocol is used for label-free quantitation based on the relative 
intensities of extracted ion chromatograms (XICs) for precursors in multiple 
data sets aligned using mass and elution time.This protocol requires information from the raw data file that is not
present in the peak list, so the quantitation report is 
generated in Mascot Distiller, which has access to both the Mascot 
search results and the raw data. 
The accuracy of this protocol is highly dependent on good mass accuracy and reproducible
chromatography, so it is not surprising that instrument manufacturers have played a 
major part in its development. In no particular order, a few key publications are:

  labeling or spiked standards, Analytical Chemistry 75 4818-4826 (2003)Chelius, D., et al.,

will be available as soon as the Mascot Distiller Quantitation Toolbox is released.
