==Daughter ion and related terms==
{{quote|quote=
The anthropomorphic terms for [[ion]]s involved in fragmentation reactions, for example, [[daughter ion]], have fallen into disuse after strong sentiments against the use of the term were voiced two decades ago [http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/mas.1280100102][http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/1044-0305(92)87078-D]. The term [[product ion]] is recommended in place of daughter ion and [[precursor ion]] in place of [[parent ion]]. The use of [[nth-generation product ion]] is recommended in place of [[granddaughter ion]] and similar terms.
