Spectrum Look

SpectrumLook can be used to inspect the fragmentation (MS/MS) spectra in an LC-MS/MS analysis. It reads Finnigan .Raw files, .mzXml files, or .mzData files, plus a "Synopsis File" listing peptides identified by a MS/MS interpretation tool like SEQUEST or X!Tandem. The software allows users to visually browse the MS/MS spectra that led to the peptide identifications, including viewing annotations for the identified b and y ions, plus neutral loss ions where appropriate.

Note that you can generate SEQUEST Synopsis/First Hits files from SEQUEST .Out files using the Peptide File Extractor.
