A process in which ionized species in the gas phase are produced from | A process in which ionized species in the gas phase are produced from a solution via highly charged fine droplets, by means of spraying the solution from a narrow-bore needle tip at atmospheric pressure in the presence of a high electric field (1,000 to 10,000 V potential). | ||
Note: When a pressurized gas is used to aid in the formation of a stable spray, the term [[pneumatically assisted electrospray ionization]] is used. The term [[ionspray]] is deprecated. | |||
