electron-transfer dissociation

in proteomics
initialism: ETD
https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.09742

Ion fragmentation technique in mass spectrometry-driven proteomics based on the transfer of low energy electrons to the molecules selected for fragmentation.

Note: ETD is particularly effective for analysis of post-translational modification.
