kendo2 is a derivative of kendo 1.3 (©AIST 2019-2021, https://www.researchgate.net/publication/337621641_kendo_-_standalone_program_for_Kendrick_analysis, no longer developed or maintained).

It combines Kendrick-based tools for the processing, visualization, filtering/extraction and assignment of mass spectral data with known or unknown repeating moieties (e.g. polymeric samples, oils, salts...). It is compatible with peak lists (.txt, .xlsx, .msd from mMass 5.5.0, .TAS from JEOL spiralTOF devices), MZMine-processed chromatographic data (.csv), ion mobility MS or any LC-based data (.mzML) and GC-based data (.cdf). It is also compatible with datafiles exported by msRepeatFinder (JEOL, https://www.jeol.co.jp/en/products/detail/msRepeatFinder.html) and SpectraScope (BioChromato).

 

The executable of kendo2 is available for download for logged-in members regardless of the user's affiliation. A few demo files are also available for download to test the tools. Members can upload their own files to test the program.
