| DRAFT DEFINITION |
| Product ion |
|---|
| An ion formed as the product of a reaction involving a particular precursor ion. The reaction could be unimolecular dissociation, an ion/molecule reaction, or involve simply a change in the number of charges. The older gender-specific terms daughter (granddaughter) ion and parent ion are not recommended. |
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |
| This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |
Orange Book Entry
Synonymous with Daughter Ion. Instead of the use of parent ion and daughter ion terms the precursor and product ion terms are preferred respectively.
