What Does FTICR Stand For?
FTICR stands for Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance
FTICR, or Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance, is a high-resolution mass spectrometry technique that utilizes magnetic fields and Fourier transform signal processing to achieve detailed analysis of ions based on their mass-to-charge ratios. This method is particularly valued for its ability to provide precise mass measurements and structural information about complex biomolecules and other samples, making it a powerful tool in fields such as chemistry, biochemistry, and proteomics. FTICR is noted for its sensitivity and capability to analyze a wide range of compounds, from small molecules to large macromolecular complexes.
