Premier Biosoft has released Simlipid, characterisation software that analyses lipid mass spectrometric data to enable advanced lipidome data analysis.
Simlipid can annotate mass spectra with identified lipid structures and abbreviations.
The software profiles lipids by matching the experimental MS spectra with its own annotated database, consisting of nine lipid classes and 1,948 lipid species.
It retrieves lipids that correspond with the observed m/z and user-specified filter criteria.
Alongside the probable lipid structure, information such as the lipid id, lipid abbreviation, systematic name, lipid category, lipid mass, chemical formula and other database links are made available.
Users can look up the database using lipid abbreviation, mass, chemical composition or lipid ID.
