- MASSiveChem package for applied mass spectrometry -

Project in practical programming in chemistry course -- EPFL CH-200

Package description

The aim of this package is to provide the user functions in order to simulate the mass spectrum of a molecule and to display the spectrum on a graph. The package also provides other features that can facilitate the chemical analysis of a molecule such as a functional group finder and an instauration calculator.

What is mass spectrometry ?

• Mass spectrometry is an analytical technique used to identify and quantify chemical compounds in a sample by measuring the mass and sometimes the charge of molecules. It involves separating ions according to their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), then detecting and analysing them. This method is widely used in chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology and other fields to characterise substances and understand their structure and composition.

Let us go through the steps required to use this package.

Usage

Requirments

The package runs on python 3.10 but supports python 3.7 through 3.10 In order to run the package correctly, the following packages need to be installed before running any pip-installed functions using the following command

pip install matplotlib
pip install bokeh
pip install rdkit
pip install numpy
pip install pandas
pip install plotly

Specifically, from these packages, the following subpackages are required:

from rdkit import Chem
from rdkit.Chem import Draw
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Installation

Cheminterface can be installed using pip or conda as

pip install MASSiveChem

or

conda install -c conda-forge MASSiveChem

The package can also be installed from source by running the following commands

First clone the repository from github

git clone https://github.com/ThomasCsson/ppchem-project-Christiansson-Gonteri-Humery.git
cd ThomasCsson/ppchem-project-Christiansson-Gonteri-Humery

Then, execute the shell script. The shell scripts require two arguments, python version and gpu/cpu.

source scripts/install_deepchem_conda.sh 3.10 cpu
