However, tandem mass tag (TMT) reporter ion interference, also named cross-label isotopic impurity, can occur from manufacture level impurities and experimental error. Such interference increases the risk of false positive after differential analysis, even more so on high intensity peptide further leading to wrong conclusions. However, by planning the right experimental design beforehand these interferences can be minimized by solving an optimization problem. In this work, I present a user-friendly interface to allow the proteomics community to find any optimal TMT experimental designs.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The Shiny application is available as an executable file at https:\/\/zenodo.org\/records\/14883262 for Windows users and at https:\/\/marc-antoinegerault.shinyapps.io\/TMT_optimization\/.
