Abstract
Reversed-phase ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (RP-UHPLC/MS) method is optimized for the quantitation of a large number of lipid species in biological samples, primarily in human plasma and serum. The method uses a C18 bridged ethylene hybrid (BEH) column (150×2.1mm; 1.7μm) for the separation of lipids from 23 subclasses with a total run time of 25min. Lipid species separation allows the resolution of isobaric and isomeric lipid forms. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer is used for targeted lipidomic analysis using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in the positive ion mode. Data are evaluated by Skyline software, and the concentrations of analytes are determined using internal standards per each individual lipid class.
