Accelerated solvent extraction system; ASE

An extraction technique that uses high temperature and pressure conditions to accelerate the process of extracting target compounds from a solid sample using a solvent. This allows extracts to be obtained more quickly and with greater efficiency than with traditional methods.

Chemical ionization; CI

A mild ionization method used in mass spectrometry. It relies on reactions between neutral molecules in the sample and reactive ions generated in a gas source, producing molecular ions or fragments under less energetic conditions than electron ionization.

Liquid chromatography; LC

A separation technique in which the components of a mixture are carried by a liquid phase (mobile phase) through a stationary phase, allowing them to be identified or purified based on their differential interactions with the two phases.
