Scope and considerations
Designed for
- LipidA-IDER annotates lipid A structures from high-resolution tandem mass spectra using lipid A-specific fragmentation interpretation.
Not designed for
- General lipidomics identification or unambiguous assignment of all lipid A positional and stereochemical isomers.
Important requirements
- The documented Python environment or Windows application, MS2 files prepared with the specified MSConvert peak-picking workflow and configured analysis/batch CSV templates.
Considerations
- Only Windows operation is documented as tested. Verify fragmentation settings, candidate chemistry and annotation evidence for the organism and experiment.
