Software tool for processing non-targeted analysis GC/MS data

The Southwest Research Institute has introduced Floodlight™, a software tool for processing non-targeted analysis (NTA) data from gas chromatography mass spectrometry and other instrument data. This cheminformatics machine learning tool integrates algorithms with analytical chemistry software to provide deep analysis of the instrument data. NTA data can require careful examination by a chemist to identify and exclude data artefacts caused by equipment, techniques or conditions. This data quality review can be automated with Floodlight.
