Dataset description
-------------------
This dataset contains spots data from seven patients diagnosed with 'Bladder cancer', seven patients diagnosed with 'LUTS' and a a pool of six healthy volunteers. Each sample was analyzed using 2D-gel electrophoresis. Then, the 'Progenesis SameSpots' software was used to compare each one of the fourteen samples against the healthy pool sample. Differentially expressed spots (those in 'Samespots Report' directory) were excised and analysed through MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Obtained spectra were submitted to Mascot in order to obtain a list of protein identifications.

Dataset contents
--------------------
- `Samespots Report`: HTML files corresponding to the reports generated by Progenesis Samespots ("Export report" option). This data can be imported into S2P using menu `Import/Samespots/Import report`.
- `Samespots CSV`: CSV files corresponding to the files generated by Progenesis Samespots. This dataset can be imported into S2P using menu `Import/Samespots/Import *.CSV`. These CSV files has a `Custom format` where fields are quoted, `;` is the column separator, `,` is the decimal separator, and `Windows` is the line break.
- `Spots`: contains files that store spots data (saved with the `Export to CSV` option of the Samespots Report editor in S2P).
- `Maldi plate`: contains files related with Maldi plates.
- `Mascot identifications`: contains files related with the Mascot identifications.
	
### Spots
`Spots` directory contents:
- `Spots.csv`: result of saving as CSV the report files contained in the `Samespots Report` directory using a fold value of 1.0 and a p-value of 0.05. This CSV has a `Custom format` where fields are not quoted, `,` is the column separator, `.` is the decimal separator, and `Windows` is the line break.
- `Spots-ALL.csv`: result of saving as CSV the CSV files contained in the `Samespots CSV` directory using a fold value of 0 and a p-value of 1. This CSV has a `Custom format` where fields are not quoted, `,` is the column separator, `.` is the decimal separator, and `Windows` is the line break.

### Maldi plate
`Maldi plate` directory contents:
- `BladderCancerProject.mpl`: the MALDI plate used in this dataset to analyze the identified spots in the MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer.

### Mascot identifications
`Mascot identifications` directory contents:
- `2016.07.21_BladderCancerProject.BTR.HTM`: Mascot HTML report file.
- `2016.07.21_BladderCancerProject.csv`: Mascot identifications in CSV format. This file is the result of saving as CSV the Mascot HTML report file using a minimum mascot score of 56, removing duplicates and removing identifications of Keratins. This CSV has a `Custom format` where fields are quoted, `,` is the column separator, `.` is the decimal separator, and `Windows` is the line break.
