A Suite of Tools for Metabolite Annotation

MS/MS-Based Search Tool

MS/MS-Based Search Tool matches MS/MS spectra provided by the user against experimental and in-silico fragments in spectral libraries.
A score is provided for each matching spectrum. Users may choose one of the following options:
(1) Enter an MS/MS spectrum as a list of m/z-intensity pairs (m/z and intensity values separated by space) in the MS/MS spectrum window
(one m/z-intensity pair per line) and precursor mass entered in the precursor mass window;
(2) Upload an mzXML file with precursor mass and retention time (RT) values uploaded as a separate text file;
(3) Upload a text file with the parent ion mass and RT (separated by a comma) entered first and followed by a list of m/z-intensity pairs;
(4) Upload multiple text files or a single text file that consists of multiple MS/MS spectra for a batch search.








MS/MS Spectrum
Enter an MS/MS spectrum as a list of m/z-intensity pairs - m/z and intensity values separated by space and one m/z-intensity pair per line
Precursor Mass
Enter the m/z of the precursor mass



Precursor Mass Tolerance (ppm)
Enter the precursor mass tolerance



MS/MS Spectrum Tolerance (ppm)
Enter the tolerance for the peaks in the MS/MS spectrum



Minimum Score Threshold
