pymzML—Python module for high-throughput bioinformatics on mass spectrometry data

pymzML is an extension to Python that offers (i) an easy access to mass spectrometry (MS) data that allows the rapid development of tools, (ii) a very fast parser for mzML data, the standard data format in MS and (iii) a set of functions to compare or handle spectra. Availability and implementation:...
