Desorption chemical ionization

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003068",
  "term": "Desorption chemical ionization",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A mass spectrometry ionization technique where the sample is introduced directly into the chemical ionization source on a probe, often heated, allowing for rapid vaporization and subsequent ionization by a reagent gas plasma. This method is suitable for analyzing thermally labile or non-volatile compounds. The ionization occurs in the gas phase through ion-molecule reactions.",
