A tandem version of this technique uses collision-induced dissociation to find the sequence of a peptide.
A tandem version of this technique uses collision-induced dissociation to find the sequence of a peptide. One version of this technique equalizes the kinetic energy of the analyte fragments and measures their time-of-flight to distinguish them. An ionization process like MALDI or ESI is used to prepare samples undergoing this technique, and basic versions of these devices use perpendicular electric and magnetic fields to select particles by their (*) velocity. This technique's output is a series of peaks, each of which corresponds to a fragment of the compound being analyzed. For 10 points, identify this technique, which identifies compounds in a sample by analyzing their mass-to-charge ratios.
