Quality Control of Result Tables

This chapter checks whether the received result tables are suitable for interpretation.

Table-Level Checks

Recommended checks include:

• required columns are present
• protein identifiers are not missing
• log2FC values are numeric
• p-values and adjusted p-values are numeric
• duplicate protein IDs are handled
• comparison labels are clear

QC Principle

Before interpreting biology, confirm that the result table is internally consistent.
