{{Sugdef|Electron Capture Dissociation
|Multiply charged ions are irradiated with low energy electrons. Capture of an  electron leads a change in charge state with the production of the (M + nH) (n-1)+. radical cation which readily fragments. This fragmentation technique is mainly used for gas-phase peptide and protein ions to observe weakly-bound post-translational modifications (PTMs) and also providing complete amino acid sequence information, e.g. Ile/Leu are discernible by this technique.
