Some examples of these applications are :

  • TOPPView: A viewer for mass spectrometry data.

  • FileConverter: Converts between different MS file formats.
  • FileFilter: Extracts or manipulates portions of data from peak, feature or consensus feature files.
  • SpectraMerger: Merges spectra from an LC/MS map, either by precursor or by RT blocks.
  • BaselineFilter: Removes the baseline from profile spectra using a top-hat filter.
  • InternalCalibration: Applies an internal calibration.
  • PTModel: Trains a model for the prediction of proteotypic peptides from a training set.
  • RTPredict: Predicts retention times for peptides using a model trained by RTModel.
  • ExecutePipeline: Executes workflows created by TOPPAS.
