What Does ECNIMS Stand For?

ECNIMS stands for Electron Capture Negative Ionization Mass Spectrometry

ECNIMS, or Electron Capture Negative Ionization Mass Spectrometry, is an advanced analytical technique used for the detection and characterization of molecules by measuring the mass-to-charge ratio of ions. This method employs electron capture to generate negative ions, making it particularly effective for analyzing polar compounds and those with electron-affinic properties. ECNIMS provides high sensitivity and specificity, facilitating the identification of trace substances in complex mixtures, and is widely applied in environmental, pharmaceutical, and biochemical research.
