Methods and systems for storing digital data into peptide sequences and retrieving digital data from peptide sequences are disclosed. The method for storing digital data into peptide sequences may include: encoding the digital data into a digital code; translating the digital code into the peptide sequences; and synthesizing the translated peptide sequences. The method for retrieving digital data from peptide sequences may include: sequencing and determining an order of the peptide sequences; converting the peptide sequences with the determined order into a digital code; and decoding the digital data from the digital code. Codes with error-correction capability are developed for encoding digital data into peptide sequences, and a computational method implemented in a software is developed for sequencing the digital data bearing peptides.

Data storage using peptides

The present disclosure provides a method and system for analysing one or more edible oil samples. In an embodiment the disclosure provides for calibrating the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) data obtained for one or more edible oil samples to obtain calibrated spectral data; and comparing the calibrated spectral data derived from the one or more samples against a library of calibrated MALDI-MS spectra for a plurality of edible oil samples to determine the most likely composition of the one or more edible oil samples.
