NCIt related terms : Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry; LC/MS;
NCIt definition : LC/MS is a hyphenated technique, combining the separation power of liquid chromatography
(LC), an analytical chromatographic technique for separating ions or molecules dissolved
in a solvent, with the detection power of mass spectrometry(MS), a technique to separate
gas phase ions according their m/z (mass to charge ratio) value. Used for drug screening,
pharmacology studies, environmental analyses and forensics.;
Alternative definition : CDISC: An analytical technique wherein liquid chromatography is coupled to mass spectrometry
in order to separate, identify, and quantify substances in a sample.;
