|acronym=(ETD)
|def=Process in which multiply [[protonated molecule]]s accept an electron from an anion with relatively low [[electron affinity]]. Capture of the electron leads to the liberation of energy and a reduction in charge of the [[ion]] with the production of the [M + nH]<sup>(n���1)+�Ģ</sup> [[odd-electron ion]], which is readily fragmented by [[collision-induced dissociation]].
