Fixed precursor ion scan
From Mass Spec Terms
| DRAFT DEFINITION |
| Fixed precursor ion scan |
|---|
|
Mass selection followed by ion kinetic energy analysis- If a precursor ion is selected by a magnetic sector all product ions formed from it in the field-free region between the magnetic sector and a flowing electric sector can be identified in an ion kinetic energy spectrum. |
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |
| This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |
Orange Book Entry
A scan that determines, in a single experiment, all the daughter ion mass/charge ratios that are produced by the reaction of a selected parent ion mass-to-charge ratio.
