MALDIquant

Quantitative Analysis of Mass Spectrometry Data

Description

MALDIquant provides a complete analysis pipeline for
matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF)
and other two-dimensional mass spectrometry data.

In addition to commonly used plotting and processing methods it
includes distinctive features, namely baseline
subtraction methods such as morphological filters (TopHat) or the
statistics-sensitive non-linear iterative peak-clipping algorithm
(SNIP), peak alignment using warping functions, handling of replicated
measurements as well as allowing spectra with different resolutions.

Install

You can install the latest release directly from
CRAN.

install.packages("MALDIquant")

Install development version (not recommended)

GitHub is not directly supported by the basic
install.packages command. You could use the
devtools package
to install the development version of MALDIquant
(you will need a complete development environment to compile the some c code).

install.packages("devtools")
library("devtools")
install_github("sgibb/MALDIquant")

Examples

To illustrate the application of MALDIquant for analyses of mass spectrometry
data please find a number of example R scripts in the
MALDIquantExamples repository.
