Hi!

What are you planning to fragment with MALDI-TOF and would you like to predict the fragmentation of: peptides, proteins, glycans, fatty acids, oligonucleotides, ...?

BTW, it's mass spectrometry, not spectroscopy :)

Generally speaking, these tools vary in terms of capabilities, user interface, and specific aspects of data analysis that they support. Depending on your specific needs (e.g., biomarker discovery, statistical analysis, visualization), you may find one tool more suitable than another. Always check the latest releases and user reviews to ensure compatibility and functionality for your dataset and research goals.

Thank you so much for this insightful response. I'd look into that, too. I appreciate you, greatly!

Thank you for your response. I would be looking at the fragmentation patterns of peptides and glycans. Thank you for the spelling's correction; that was an oversight.

The tool I tend to use most to predict fragmentation patterns of (modified) peptides is the MS Product feature in Protein Prospector: https://prospector.ucsf.edu/prospector/cgi-bin/msform.cgi?form=msproduct

Hope this is of use to you too!

Eef Dirksen Thank you, so much. I'd check it out, too. I appreciate!
