fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (ft-icr) mass spectrometry

Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry is a technique used for high-resolution analysis of molecules in which ions are trapped and manipulated in a magnetic field. By applying radiofrequency pulses, the ions are excited to oscillate and their frequencies are detected using a Fourier transform. This allows for precise determination of the mass-to-charge ratios of the ions, enabling the identification and characterization of various compounds with exceptional accuracy and sensitivity.
