This project is the reference reader, writer and validator implementation for mzTab for metabolomics 2.0+.
mzTab-M is intended as a reporting standard for quantitative results from metabolomics/lipodomics approaches. This format is further intended to provide local LIMS systems as well as MS metabolomics repositories a simple way to share and combine basic information. mzTab-M has been developed with a view to support the following general tasks. Facilitate the sharing of final experimental results, especially with researchers outside the field of metabolomics. Export of results to external software, including programs such as Microsoft Excel and Open Office Spreadsheet and statistical software / coding languages such as R. Act as an output format of (web-) services that report MS-based results and thus can produce standardized result pages. Be able to link to the external experimental evidence e.g. by referencing back to mzML files.
