EMnIM

emnim_logoEM∩IM relates electron density maps, typically obtained from transmission electron microscopy (EM), with ion-mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) data.

It allows the user to estimate collision cross-sections from density maps, and thereby enabling the mutual correlation and validation of IM-MS and TEM. Further, the software provides a means to define an appropriate EM threshold value (“contour”), leading to a density map visualisation more representative of actual data.

EM∩IM can be controlled by a Graphical User interface or interactively via Python commands. It has been developed by Matteo while in Benesch group, University of Oxford.
