Direct Determination of Phospholipid Structures in Microorganisms by Fast Atom Bombardment Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry
1032
Various MS/MS scans are used in combination with rap id extractions and automated i n s t r u m e n t control to quickly produce phospholipid class and fatty acyl profiles. A spectrum of all species of the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) class is obtained with 1 pg of PE, equivalent to 10 E. coli cells. Mark J. Cole and Christie G. Enke*, Department of Chemis try, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824
