MicrobeMS - A MATLAB Toolbox for Microbial Identification Based on Mass Spectrometry (opens in new tab)

Over the last two decades, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-ToF MS) has become the standard method for identifying bacteria and has found a wide range of applications, especially in clinical microbiology. The method's high taxonomic resolution, minimal sample preparation, and complete, ready-to-use commercial systems, which include instrumentation, experimental protocols, spectral databases, and identification analysis software, were key fact...
