MACE – An Open Access Data Repository of Mass Spectra for Chemical Ecology

MACE is an open access collection of electron impact (EI) mass spectra for coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) that serves as an add-on database, comprising curated spectra not present in widely available commercial mass spectral libraries, such as the NIST or WILEY databases. The s...

Description
Summary:MACE is an open access collection of electron impact (EI) mass spectra for coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) that serves as an add-on database, comprising curated spectra not present in widely available commercial mass spectral libraries, such as the NIST or WILEY databases. The spectra are stored as text files that allow easy integration into individual GC/MS systems. The article describes the concept of MACE, the data structure, how to contribute, and its usage. MACE is designed as a community effort and will require contributions from the community to be successful.
