measures mass-to-charge ratios of ions in a sample

Mass Spectrometry (MS) is an analytical technique used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of ions. It helps identify the composition of a sample by generating a spectrum that displays the masses of its components, making it invaluable in fields like chemistry, biology, and medicine for detecting and quantifying molecules, including proteins and metabolites.
