Ultraviolet-photodissociation (UVPD) mass spectrometry is an emerging analytical tool for
structural elucidation of biomolecules including lipids. Gas phase UVPD of ionised fatty …

RATIONALE Both traditional electron ionization and electrospray ionization tandem mass
spectrometry have demonstrated limitations in the unambiguous identification of fatty acids …

Fatty acids are a structurally diverse category of lipids with a myriad of biochemical
functions, which includes their role as building blocks of more complex lipids (eg …

Rationale Eicosanoids are short‐lived bio‐responsive lipids produced locally from oxidation
of polyunsaturated fatty acids (FAs) via a cascade of enzymatic or free radical reactions …

Unraveling the complexity of the lipidome requires the development of novel approaches to
facilitate structural identification and characterization of lipid species with isomer-level …

Fatty acids are a major source of structural diversity within the lipidome due to variations in
their acyl chain lengths, branching, and cyclization, as well as the number, position, and …

The utility of 193-nm ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) and 10.6-μm infrared multiphoton
dissociation (IRMPD) for the characterization of lipid A structures was assessed in an ion …

Free fatty acids (FA) are a vital component of cells and are critical to cellular structure and
function, so much so that alterations in FA are often associated with cell malfunction and …

Understanding and elucidating the diverse structures and functions of lipids has motivated
the development of many innovative tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) strategies. Higher …

The development of new ion-activation/dissociation methods continues to be one of the most
active areas of mass spectrometry owing to the broad applications of tandem mass …
