The numbers in parentheses () denote the number of features found by LC/MS using ANP chromatography. Data was not collected for APCI+mode and for pH 2 ANP/ESI−.

*

The % relative frequency (Rel Freq.) corresponds to the number of features found in 75% or in 100% of all biological sample replicates, and in at least one or more conditions. Only features with a coefficient of variation less than 100% (CV<100%) were used for subsequent significance testing.
