NAME

       libopenms - library for LC/MS data management and analysis

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page documents briefly the libopenms package that brings a library for LC/MS
       data management and analysis. OpenMS offers an infrastructure for the development of  mass
       spectrometry-related  software  and  powerful  2D  and  3D visualization solutions. OpenMS
       offers analyses for various quantitation  protocols,  including  label-free  quantitation,
       SILAC,  iTRAQ,  SRM, SWATH… It provides build-in algorithms for de-novo identification and
       database search, as well as adapters  to  other  state-of-the  art  tools  like  X!Tandem,
       Mascot,  OMSSA…  OpenMS  supports  the Proteomics Standard Initiative (PSI) formats for MS
       data and supports easy integration of tools into workflow engines like Knime, Galaxy,  WS-
       Pgrade, and TOPPAS via the TOPPtools concept and a unified parameter handling.
