mzmine is an open-source software for mass-spectrometry data processing. The goals of the project is to provide a user-friendly, flexible and easily extendable software with a complete set of modules covering the entire MS data analysis workflow.
More information about the software can be found on the mzmine website.
Getting started with the Documentation and our YouTube channel
mzmine source codes are distributed under the MIT license.
Releases are split into stable releases and the latest development build which reflects the current state of the master branch and is meant for testing purposes. Download options include portable versions and installers for the Window, macOS, and Linux.
mzmine should work on Windows, macOS, and Linux using either the installers or the portable versions. There are NO further requirements as mzmine packages a specific Java Virtual Machine. This means the local Java installation has no impact on mzmine. Windows users might be warned that mzmine is not signed or from a trusted source and have to click run anyways.
Before creating your first project, we recommend to set the preferences.
Download the latest version, install mzmine, login, and run mzmine. See mzmine command-line interface as a reference.
