analyzes molecules by breaking them into fragments twice
Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS/MS) is an advanced analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules in a sample by breaking them into smaller fragments. It involves two stages of mass spectrometry: the first stage isolates the molecule of interest, and the second stage analyzes the fragments produced after the molecule is broken apart. This method is highly sensitive and specific, making it valuable for applications in fields like biochemistry, pharmacology, and environmental science.
