Mass Spectrometry Analysis

Mass spectrometry (MS) is a vital diagnostic method that ionizes chemical species and sorts the ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio. A mass spectrum is a graphical plot of the ion signal as a function of the mass-to-charge ratio during experimental analysis. These spectra are then exploited to regulate the primary or isotopic name of a sample for observations, the masses of particles and of various molecules, and to elucidate the chemical structures of desired molecules, such as glycopeptides, biomolecules, and other chemical compounds.
