Polyxmass is a software suite for mass spectrometry of (bio)polymers, offered under the Free Software Foundation's GNU license. The software can be used for a variety of research applications related to polymer science.
The software suite allows full personalization of every aspect of the polymer chemistry being defined, as well as the graphic display of polymer sequences. This flexibility makes it easier for users to develop new polymer chemistries for research and other purposes. Polyxmass software was formerly known as polyXmass but is now upgraded to provide users with different features.
To use the software, certain requirements need to be installed such as the libxml2 library and the glib2/gdk2/gtk+2/ trilogy. The graphical rendering of the polymer sequences is done using librsvg2 and libgnomecanvas. The support of these requirements ensures that this software functions optimally and leaves no room for dysfunction.
The latest version of the software has improvements that guaranteed bug-fix due to Gtk+ renamed GtkTooltips to GtkTooltip and changing the API. Overall, GNU polyxmass is a reliable software suite that has proven useful to perform complex simulations of polymer chemistry with related mass data computations, which makes it a fantastic software suite for researchers and professionals working with (bio)-polymers.
