Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)

  • What is mass spectrometry (MS)? What information does mass spectrometry provide? Mass spectrometry is an analytical tool used for measuring the molecular mass of a sample.
  • Mass spectrometry is therefore useful for quantitation of atoms or molecules and also for determining chemical and structural information about molecules.
  • Suter who is now a Senior research chemist at Swiss Federal Institute for Environ Research Emphasis: Tandem mass spectrometry is a powerful technique for characterizing a proteome.
  • The use of mass spectrometry is an alternative technique that provides exact mass and stability to fragmentation information by analysis of the mass/charge ratio of ions in the gas phase.
  • Mass spectrometry is used for the accurate determination of molecular masses.
