Mass Spectrometry

Mass spectrum (relative abundance vs. m/z ratio) of Man-3 glycan showing molecular ion peak, base peak, and fragmentation peaks

Mass spectrometry (MS) is an analytical technique that uses mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio to identify compounds in a sample. The method identifies a compound by determining its molecular weight and analyzing its isotopic abundance. A mass spectrometer ionizes the sample into gaseous ions and then identifies the ions by their mass-to-charge ratios and relative abundances.
