| Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) is considered as one of the best option for biological application fields, where an extreme analytical performance in a very high mass region is increasingly demanded. This paper illustrates the characteristics of FT-ICR MS, involving the advantage and disadvantage, especially in being used for biological mass spectrometry. The contents include the origin of the ultra-high resolving power, the versatility of the ion trapping technique, and the congeniality to the advanced ionization methods for biomolecules. | ||
