Did you mean Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry?

GlossaryLiquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is an advanced analytical technique used to identify and quantify compounds in a sample. It combines liquid chromatography, which separates the mixture into its individual components, with tandem mass spectrometry, which provides detailed information about the molecular structure and quantity of each component. This method is highly sensitive and precise, making it valuable in fields like pharmacology, biochemistry, and environmental science.
