Box-plots of IR15, IR89 and IR96 reveal significant differences between patients with lung inflammation and lung cancer patients. Despite the relatively small fold change of IR89 (Additional file 1: Figure S1), the integration value (and so relative glutamate concentration) is significantly higher in the inflammation group. IR = integration region. IR89 represents glutamate and methionine, IR15 represent tyrosine and IR96 contains signals from alanine, isoleucine and lysine. IR = integration region
