LCMSFeatureFinder 1.0.0

LCMSFeatureFinder is a software developed by Battelle Memorial Institute for automated analysis of data from liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) experiments. It aims to identify and quantify chemical compounds present in complex samples.

LCMSFeatureFinder uses advanced algorithms and statistical methods to process LC-MS data. It first detects individual features (peaks) representing chemical compounds in the data. These features are then aligned across multiple samples to account for retention time shifts. Finally, the software performs peak picking, intensity estimation, and compound identification using a combination of databases and spectral matching.

LCMSFeatureFinder is designed to handle various types of LC-MS data, including both targeted and untargeted experiments. It can process data acquired in positive or negative ionization modes and supports different chromatographic separation techniques (e.g., reversed-phase, normal phase).

Yes, LCMSFeatureFinder is specifically designed to handle complex sample matrices commonly encountered in environmental and biomedical research. It incorporates noise reduction techniques, background subtraction, and sophisticated peak detection algorithms to accurately identify features even in the presence of interfering compounds.

LCMSFeatureFinder generates comprehensive reports containing information about identified chemical compounds such as retention time, peak intensity, mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), and spectral matching scores. It also provides statistical summaries, visualization tools, and export options for seamless integration with downstream data analysis workflows.

Yes, currently LCMSFeatureFinder is only available as a Windows application. However, compatibility with other operating systems may be considered in future updates.
