lxPostman: Web-Based Application for Post-Processing LipidXplorer Output Files

lxPostman is a web-based application designed to facilitate the post-processing of output files generated by LipidXplorer, a software tool for shotgun lipidomics. The application provides a user-friendly interface for quality control, quantitation, and merging of results from multiple runs or samples.

Key Features:
  • Quality control : lxPostman allows users to evaluate the quality of their data by assessing metrics such as signal-to-noise ratio, peak intensity, and retention time.
  • Quantitation : The application enables users to quantify lipids based on peak areas, heights, or intensities, and to normalize results using various methods (e.g., TIC normalization).
  • Merging results : lxPostman allows users to combine results from multiple runs or samples, creating a single output file that contains all the data.
  • Interactive visualization : The application provides an interactive interface for visualizing lipid profiles, allowing users to explore and compare results in detail.
Benefits:
  • Improved data quality : By providing tools for quality control and quantitation, lxPostman helps ensure that lipidomics data is accurate and reliable.
  • Increased efficiency : The application streamlines the process of post-processing LipidXplorer output files, saving time and reducing manual effort.
  • Enhanced collaboration : lxPostman allows users to share their results with colleagues or collaborators, facilitating collaborative research.
Technical Details:
  • Input data : lxPostman accepts output files generated by LipidXplorer in various formats (e.g., CSV, Excel).
  • Output data : The application generates output files that contain quality-controlled and quantified lipidomics data, which can be used for further analysis or exported to other software tools.
  • Integration with LipidXplorer : lxPostman is designed to work seamlessly with LipidXplorer, allowing users to easily transfer results between the two applications.
Availability:

lxPostman is available as a web-based application on the LIFS Tools website. Users can access the tool by creating an account on the website.
