Rationale High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) with high sample throughput has become an important analytical tool for the analysis of highly complex samples and data processing has become a major challenge for the user community. Evaluating direct-infusion HRMS data without automated tools for batch processing can be a time-consuming step in the analytical pipeline. Therefore, we developed a new browser-based software tool for processing HRMS data. Methods The software, named UltraMassExplorer (UME), was written in the R programming language using the shiny library to build the graphical user interface. The performance of the integrated formula library search algorithm was tested using HRMS data derived from analyses of up to 50 extracts of marine dissolved organic matter. Results The software supports the processing of lists of calibrated masses of neutral, protonated or deprotonated molecules, with masses of up to 700 Da and a mass accuracy
