LipiDex: A tool for high-confidence LC-MS/MS lipid identification

LipiDex

LipiDex unifies all stages of LC-MS/MS lipid identification, empowering intelligent data filtering to greatly reduce manual result curation and increase identification confidence

Download

Key Features

  • Create and manage custom in-silico lipid spectral libraries
  • Model complex lipid MS/MS fragmentation using intuitive fragmentation templates
  • Generate high-confidence MS/MS lipid identifications
  • Annotate chromatographic peak tables with lipid identifications
  • Automatically filter peak tables for adduct peaks, in-source fragments, and dimers

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Written in Java, LipiDex accepts either .mgf or .mzXML MS/MS files and chromatographic peak tables from either Compound Discoverer or mzMine 2.

Java: https://java.com/en/download/
Proteowizard MS/MS file converter: http://proteowizard.sourceforge.net/
Compound Discoverer: https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/OPTON-30783
mzMine2: http://mzmine.github.io/

Installing

To install LipiDex, ensure you have installed the most recent version of 64-bit Java and then download LipiDex here
