mzR provides a unified API to the common file formats and parsers available for mass spectrometry data. It comes with a subset of the proteowizard library for mzXML, mzML and mzIdentML. The netCDF reading code has previously been used in XCMS.

The MsQuality provides functionality to calculate quality metrics for mass spectrometry-derived, spectral data at the per-sample level. MsQuality relies on the mzQC framework of quality metrics defined by the Human Proteom Organization-Proteomics Standards Initiative (HUPO-PSI). These metrics quantify the quality of spectral raw files using a controlled vocabulary. The package is especially addressed towards users that acquire mass spectrometry data on a large scale (e.g. data sets from clinical settings consisting of several thousands of samples). The MsQuality package allows to calculate low-level quality metrics that require minimum information on mass spectrometry data: retention time, m/z values, and associated intensities. MsQuality relies on the Spectra package, or alternatively the MsExperiment package, and its infrastructure to store spectral data. Additionally, MsQuality supports Chromatograms objects from the Chromatograms package for chromatographic quality metrics.

Provides functionality for untargeted LC-MS metabolomics research as specified in the associated protocol article in the 'Metabolomics Data Processing and Data Analysis—Current Best Practices' special issue of the Metabolites journal (2020). This includes tabular data preprocessing and quality control, uni- and multivariate analysis as well as quality control visualizations, feature-wise visualizations and results visualizations. Raw data preprocessing and functionality related to biological context, such as pathway analysis, is not included.

Infrastructure to store and manage all aspects related to a complete proteomics or metabolomics mass spectrometry (MS) experiment. The MsExperiment package provides light-weight and flexible containers for MS experiments building on the new MS infrastructure provided by the Spectra, QFeatures and related packages. Along with raw data representations, links to original data files and sample annotations, additional metadata or annotations can also be stored within the MsExperiment container. To guarantee maximum flexibility only minimal constraints are put on the type and content of the data within the containers.

Visualisation of peptide isotopic peaks and SIP peptide spectra match (PSM). Filtration of high quality PSM. Accurate isotopic abundance calculation of peptide and metabolites. Visualisation of SIP proteomics results.

Mass spectrometry (MS) data backend supporting import and export of MS/MS spectra data from Mascot Generic Format (mgf) files. Objects defined in this package are supposed to be used with the Spectra Bioconductor package. This package thus adds mgf file support to the Spectra package.
