Definition: A mass spectrometric technique that is used for the analysis of a wide range of biomolecules, such as glycoalkaloids, glycoproteins, polysaccharides, and peptides. Positive and negative fast atom bombardment spectra are recorded on a mass spectrometer fitted with an atom gun with xenon as the customary beam. The mass spectra obtained contain molecular weight recognition as well as sequence information.  a type of mass spectrum anal; NIM; DF: FABMS    Other names Spectroscopy, Mass, Fast Atom Bombardment; Mass Spectroscopy, Fast Atom Bombardment; Mass Spectrometry, Fast Atom Bombardment; Fast Atom Bombardment Mass Spectroscopy; Fast Atom Bombardment Mass Spectrometry
