  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-005292",
  "term": "High-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An ion mobility spectrometry technique that separates ions based on their differential mobility in high and low electric fields. Ions are subjected to an asymmetric waveform, and a compensation voltage is applied to allow specific ions to pass through the analyzer. This method is used for separating isobaric ions and reducing chemical noise in mass spectrometry.",
