App of the Month: Mass Spectrometry Peaks
APP NAME: Mass Spectrometry Peaks
OFFERED BY: rpor
PLATFORMS: Android (requires 2.2 and up)
WHAT IT DOES: The Mass Spectrometry Peaks app is designed to calculate the chemical formula from exact mass measured in mass spectrometry. The formula calculation supports the elements C, H, N, O, P, and S. According to the company, the app requires the input of the monoisotopic mass, its charge, and the ionizing molecule. The chemical formula reportedly is automatically checked for even electron content and mass distribution for the different elements.
