  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001122",
  "term": "Base peak chromatogram",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A type of chromatogram generated in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) by plotting the intensity of the most abundant ion (the base peak) in each mass spectrum acquired over time. This chromatogram provides a representation of the elution profile of compounds, similar to a total ion chromatogram, but emphasizes the most intense fragment ion for each scan.",
