High-performance liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-flame ionization detection characterization of Delta5-polyenoic fatty acids in triacylglycerols from conifer seed oils
Liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) was used to analyze phospholipids from three species of the anaerobic beer-spoilage bacterial genus Pectinatus. Analysis of total lipids by HILIC (Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography) column succeeded in separating diacyl- and plasmalogen phospholipids. Plasmalogens were then analyzed by means of the ESI-MS/MS and more than 220 molecular species of four classes of plasmalogens (PlsCho (choline plasmalogen), PlsEtn (ethanolamine plasmalogen), PlsGro (glycerol plasmalogen), and PlsSer (serine plasmalogen)) were identified. Major molecular species were c-p19:0/15:0 PlsEtn and PlsSer, which accounted for more than 4% of the total lipids.

Reversed phase liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC/MS-APCI) was used to analyze both synthetic triacylglycerols (TAG) having 1-3 branched fatty acids (FA) in the molecule, and natural TAG prepared by precursor directed biosynthesis from valine, leucine and isoleucine and the corresponding branched short-chain acids in cultivations of Rhodococcus erythropolis. The technique made it possible to identify and quantify TAG differing in a single branched-chain FA. Altogether 11 TAG were synthesized, out of which 8 were synthesized stereospecifically. Branched- and straight-chain-TAG were separated and identified while TAG differing only in iso or anteiso FA could not be separated. The APCI mass spectra of iso-, anteiso- and straight-chain TAG were completely identical. The natural material was found to contain 19 TAG having at least one branched FA. Cultivation on six different substrates showed, apart from the presumed and common incorporation of precursors to iso-even, iso-odd and anteiso FA, also some unusual features such as an increase in the content of odd-FA after the addition of Val (attributed to catabolism of Val to propionate) or the appearance of branched monounsaturated FA. The two-sample paired t test, when applied to the TAG, showed that only the pair Val and isobutyrate differ in incorporation into FA--see, e.g. proportions of M/M/O and brM/brM/O (1.2:1.2 and 1.9:1.2, respectively). Also, incorporation of Val (isobutyrate) yielded only TAG having two branched FA in the molecule, whereas Leu and Ile (isovalerate and 2-methyl-butyrate) gave only TAG with a single branched FA in the molecule.
