Abstract
This paper provides information about open source softwares that most often used as a tool to analyze data generated from the Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC-MS) instrument and including a little discussion about how LC-MS works. LC-MS consists of Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometer analytical instruments. This device extensively used in Metabolomics, because it provides more comprehensive information about the metabolites. It also shows the breadth of the diversity of chemical compounds in metabolites that make difficult and time-consuming to identification of metabolite's structures. This is an obstacle in efficient and accurate identification. So, many open source softwares developed to simplify and speed up the analysis and interpretation of LC-MS result. There are popular open source softwares. We compiling mini review of this open source softwares. The conclusion is open source softwares quite helpful in terms of data analysis and interpretation of compounds contained, but no one has provided a single interpretation, still need experts for reliable interpretation.
