An analyzing device includes: a measurement data acquisition unit that acquires measurement data obtained by irradiating a plurality of irradiation positions on a sample with a laser beam and performing mass spectrometry on a sample component corresponding to each irradiation position; and an analysis unit that performs analysis of the measurement data by excluding a set of data corresponding to an excluded irradiation position among the plurality of irradiation positions each having a different irradiation portion from which a portion that has been already irradiated with the laser beam is excluded in an irradiation range irradiated when the laser beam is irradiated to each irradiation position.

The present invention provides a specific combination of colon cancer markers based on statistical knowledge, which is capable of detecting a larger number of colon cancer patients in an earlier stage while maintaining high specificity. A multiplex colon cancer marker panel comprising a combination of five colon cancer markers of Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5, Carbohydrate antigen 19-9, Galectin-4, APEX nuclease and Actin-related protein 2. A method for analyzing colon cancer markers using multiplex colon cancer marker panel.

The present invention provides a method for global quantitative analysis of protein that is effectively applied also for unpurified samples such as biological samples, and achieves better detection sensitivity and quantitativeness than the conventional NBS method. A method for global quantitative analysis of protein comprising: preparing two states of protein samples, a Protein sample I for analysis and a control Protein sample II; solubilizing the Protein sample I and II by urea or guanidine hydrochloride; subjecting the solubilized Protein sample I and II to modification using 2-nitro[C]benzenesulfenyl chloride and 2-nitro[C]benzenesulfenyl chloride; mixing and desalting the modified Protein sample I and II; resolubilizing by urea or guanidine hydrochloride; reducing and alkylating; subjecting to trypsin digestion in the presence of urea or guanidine hydrochloride; separating the obtained peptide mixture using a media having a phenyl group; and subjecting the enriched modified peptide fragments to mass spectrometry preferably using 3CHCA, 3H4NBA or mixture of 3H4NBA and 4CHCA as a matrix.
