:An en rule (somewhat longer than a hyphen) is used to indicate the dual nature of a species; thus, ion??????????????????????????radical represents a species that is both an ion and a radical. A solidus is used to indicate interaction between 2 or more separate species, e.g., we refer to an ion/molecule reaction or an ion/ion collision.

A single analytical technique, or a type of instrument, is abbreviated without hyphens. Thus, TOFMS, FTICRMS.
A hyphen is used when highlighting a particular component or feature of an instrument or technique. Thus, MALDI-TOFMS, ESI-MS/MS. When 2 or more different analytical techniques are coupled in tandem, this is represented by a solidus placed between the abbreviations for the techniques. Thus we write Py/GC/EI-MS, CZE/TOFMS.
An en rule (somewhat longer than a hyphen) is used to indicate the dual nature of a species; thus, ion??????????????????????????radical represents a species that is both an ion and a radical. A solidus is used to indicate interaction between 2 or more separate species, e.g., we refer to an ion/molecule reaction or an ion/ion collision.
