Metabolomic Profiling Analysis of Physiological Responses to Acute Hypoxia and Reoxygenation in Juvenile Qingtian Paddy Field Carp Cyprinus Carpio Var Qingtianensis. Front Physiol 2022; 13:853850. [PMID: 35669576 PMCID: PMC9163826 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.853850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The Qingtian paddy field carp (Cyprinus carpio var qingtianensis) is a local carp cultivated in the rice field of Qingtian county, Zhejiang province, China. The paddy field environment is distinct from the pond environment. Due to the inability to artificially increase oxygen, the dissolved oxygen greatly changes during the day. Therefore, investigating the physiological regulation to the changes of acute dissolved oxygen in Qingtian paddy field carp (PF-carp) will dramatically clarify how it adapts to the paddy breeding environment. The high tolerance of Qingtian paddy field carp to hypoxia makes it an ideal organism for studying molecular regulatory mechanisms during hypoxia process and reoxygenation following hypoxia in fish. In this study, we compared the changes of metabolites in the hepatopancreas during hypoxia stress and the following reoxygenation through comparative metabolomics. The results showed 131 differentially expressed metabolites between the hypoxic groups and control groups. Among them, 95 were up-regulated, and 36 were down-regulated. KEGG Pathway enrichment analysis showed that these differential metabolites were mainly involved in regulating lipid, protein, and purine metabolism PF-carps could require energy during hypoxia by enhancing the gluconeogenesis pathway with core glutamic acid and glutamine metabolism. A total of 63 differentially expressed metabolites were screened by a comparison between the reoxygenated groups and the hypoxic groups. Specifically, 15 were up-regulated, and 48 were down-regulated. The KEGG Pathway enrichment analysis supported that PF-carp could continue to gain energy by consuming glutamic acid and the glutamine accumulated during hypoxia and simultaneously weaken the ammonia-transferring effect of amino acids and the toxicity of ammonia. By consuming glycerophospholipids and maintaining the Prostaglandin E content, cell damage was improved, sphingosinol synthesis was reduced, and apoptosis was inhibited. Additionally, it could enhance the salvage synthesis and de novo synthesis of purine, reduce purine accumulation, promote the synthesis of nucleotide and energy carriers, and assist in recovering physiological metabolism. Overall, results explained the physiological regulation mechanism of PF-carp adapting to the acute changes of dissolved oxygen at the metabolic level and also provided novel evidence for physiological regulation of other fish in an environment with acute changes in dissolved oxygen levels.

Abstract
In this study, we first isolate phospholipid (PL) from Golden pompano head (GPH), and elucidate its structure. Gas chromatography (GC) was used to assess the GPH-PL fatty acid composition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and ultraviolet absorption spectrometry (UV) were used for the qualitative analysis of GPH-PL, and LC-MS analysis was used to determine the major PL species. The results show that the contents of the various molecular species of GPH-PL were generally in the order phosphatidylcholine (PC) > sphingomyelin (SM) > lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) > phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The main molecular PC species are 16:0/18:2, 13:0/23:2, 27:2/9:0, 16:0/18:1, 12:0/22:2, 18:0/18:1, 18:0/24:1, and 18:1/24:0. The major SM species are 16:1/16:0, 16:0/18:1, 16:0/18:2, 16:0/26:2, and 18:1/24:1. The major LPC species are 18:1 and 16:0. The major PE species are 18:0/18:1 and 16:0/22:6. The total eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) contents in the GPH-PLs were 18.39%, and the content of DHA in the PL fraction was 16.47%. These results suggest that PLs from GPH is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which have good activity in anti-inflammation, anti-tumor, anti-osteoporosis and other aspects, and have important development prospects in the future.

Abstract
A pivotal matter to aquaculture is the sourcing of sustainable resources as ingredients to aquafeeds. Levels of plant delivered oils as source of fatty acids (FA) in aquafeeds have reached around 70% resulting in reduced levels of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFA), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), in salmon fillet composition. EPA and DHA can modulate inflammation and immune response, so it is crucial to understand how fish immune response is affected by low LC n-3 PUFA diet and if this diet can have a detrimental effect on vaccine response. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) can produce EPA/DHA from α-linolenic acid (ALA) and this endogenous capacity can be explored to develop families with higher tolerance to low LC n-3 PUFA diets. Here we analyze innate and adaptive immune response in Atlantic salmon to a commercial vaccine after being fed low levels of EPA and DHA, and we also compare three strains of salmon selected by their endogenous capacity of synthesizing LC- n-3 PUFA. A total of 2,890 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified (p-value adjusted < 0.1) when comparing vaccinated fish against control non-vaccinated. Gene ontology (GO) and KEGG analysis with 442 up/downregulated genes revealed that most DEGs were both related to immune response as well as part of important immune related pathways, as "Toll-like receptor" and "Cytokine-Cytokine interaction". Adaptive response was also addressed by measuring antigen specific IgM, and titers were significantly higher than in the pre-immune fish at 62 days post-immunization. However, diet and strain had no/little effect on vaccine-specific IgM or innate immune responses. Atlantic salmon therefore display robustness in its response to vaccination even when feed low levels of LC n-3 PUFA.

Effects of dietary n-3 fatty acids on Toll-like receptor activation in primary leucocytes from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). FISH PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY 2017; 43:1065-1080.

Abstract
The shortage of the n-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the international markets has led to increasing substitution of fish oil by plant oils in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) feed and thereby reducing the EPA and DHA content in salmon. However, the minimum required levels of these fatty acids in fish diets for securing fish health are unknown. Fish were fed with 0, 1 or 2% EPA or DHA alone or in combination of both over a period, growing from 50 to 400 g. Primary head kidney leucocytes were isolated and stimulated with Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands to determine if EPA and DHA deficiency can affect expression of important immune genes and eicosanoid production. Several genes related to viral immune response did not vary between groups. However, there was a tendency that the high-level EPA and DHA groups expressed lower levels of IL-1β in non-stimulated leucocytes. These leucocytes were also more responsive to the TLR ligands, inducing higher expression levels of IL-1β and Mx1 after stimulation. The levels of prostaglandin E2 and leukotriene B4 in serum and media from stimulated leucocytes were lower in both low and high EPA and DHA groups. In conclusion, leucocytes from low EPA and DHA groups seemed to be less responsive towards immunostimulants, like TLR ligands, indicating that low levels or absence of dietary EPA and DHA may have immunosuppressive effects.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of different heat treatments (pan-frying, oven-baking, and grilling) on the contents of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in fish tissue. Four fish species were examined: pike, carp, cod, and herring. High performance liquid chromatography, coupled with electrospray ionization and mass spectrometric detection (HPLC/ESI/MS), was employed for determination of intact lipid molecules containing n-3 and n-6 PUFAs. Although mostly non-polar lipids (triacylglycerols, TGs) were present in the fish tissue, the PUFAs were present preferentially in the phospholipid fraction. Omnivorous fish species (carp, herring) contained more TGs than did predatory ones (pike, cod). Higher amounts of PUFAs were detected in the marine species than in the freshwater ones. The impact of heat treatments on the lipid composition in the fish tissue seems to be species-specific, as indicated by multivariate data analysis. Herring tissue is most heat-stable, and the mildest heat treatment for PUFA preservation was oven-baking.

Abstract
The quantification of phospholipid classes and the determination of their molecular structures are crucial in physiological and medical studies. This paper's target analytes are cell membrane phospholipids, which play an important role in the seasonal acclimation processes of poikilothermic organisms. We introduce a set of simple and cost-effective analytical methods that enable efficient characterization and quantification of particular phospholipid classes and the identification and relative distribution of the individual phospholipid species. The analytical approach involves solid-phase extraction and high-performance thin-layer chromatography, which facilitate the separation of particular lipid classes. The obtained fractions are further transesterified to fatty acid methyl esters and subjected to gas chromatography coupled to flame ionization detection, which enables the determination of the position of double bonds. Phospholipid species separation is achieved by high-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry, which gives information about the headgroup moiety and attached fatty acids. The total content of each phospholipids class is assessed by phosphorus determination by UV spectrophotometry. The simultaneous analysis of phosphorus, fatty acid residues, and phospholipid species provides detailed information about phospholipid composition. Evaluation of these coupled methods was achieved by application to an insect model, Pyrrhocoris apterus. High correlation was observed between fatty acid compositions as determined by gas chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography analysis.

Abstract
Lipids are important components in all biological tissues having many essential roles associated with the proper function of the organism. Their analysis in the biological tissues and body fluids is a challenging task due to the extreme sample complexity of polar lipids and to their amphiphilic character. In this work, we describe a new method for the characterization of the lipid composition in various tissues, using off-line two-dimensional coupling of hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and reversed-phase (RP) high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass spectrometry. In the first dimension the total lipid extracts are fractioned using HILIC into individual lipid classes. In total, 19 lipid classes (+3 regioisomeric pairs) that cover a wide range of polarities are separated in one analytical run, which is the highest number of analyzed lipid classes reported so far. The lysophospholipid regioisomers are also separated in HILIC mode followed by the identification based on the characteristic ESI mass spectra. The collected fractions of the various lipid classes are further separated in the RP mode, which offers an excellent resolution of the individual lipid species. Their ESI or APCI mass spectra give correct information on the fatty acid composition and on the individual regioisomeric positions on the glycerol skeleton. Off-line coupling of both modes enables the comprehensive analysis of plant and animal samples as illustrated on the analysis of egg yolk, soya and porcine brain tissues.

Abstract
We evaluated white bass ovum fatty acid composition as well as embryonic and larval survival after varying n-3 and n-6 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) concentrations in maternal diets. Diets containing graded levels (0, 33, 66, or 100%) of squid to menhaden oils were fed daily to apparent satiation to female white bass for 8 weeks prior to spawning. Embryonic survival was negatively related to maternal squid oil intake (P=0.015, R2=0.970). Squid oil-fed broodstock produced ova with decreased 20:5n-3 and increased C18 polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations, largely reflecting the fatty acid profile of squid oil. Within ovum phospholipid, accumulation of 18:2n-6 may have altered biological function resulting in the lower embryonic survival among ova produced from the squid oil-fed broodstock. Our data suggest the importance of feeding white bass broodstock diets high in total n-3 LC-PUFA (at least 4.0% dry matter), and 20:5n-3-rich lipid sources such as menhaden oil can be effectively utilized by female white bass to produce quality ova.

Abstract
Fatty acid (FA) profile of fish tissue mirrors dietary FA profile and changes in a time-dependent manner following a change in dietary FA composition. To determine whether FA profile change varies among lipid classes, we evaluated the FA composition of fillet cholesteryl esters (CE), phospholipids (PL), and triacylglycerols (TAG) of sunshine bass (SB, Morone chrysops x M. saxatilis) raised on feeds containing fish oil or 50:50 blend of fish oil and coconut, grapeseed, linseed, or poultry oil, with or without implementation of a finishing period (100% FO feed) prior to harvest. Each lipid class was associated with a generalized FA signature, irrespective of nutritional history: fillet PL was comprised largely of saturated FA (SFA), long-chain polyunsaturated FA (LC-PUFA), and total n-3 FA; fillet TAG was higher in MC-PUFA and total n-6 FA; and fillet CE was highest in monounsaturated FA (MUFA). Neutral lipids reflected dietary composition in a near-direct fashion; conversely, PL showed evidence of selectivity for MC- and LC-PUFA. Shorter-chain SFA were not strongly reflected within any lipid fraction, even when dietary availability was high, suggesting catabolism of these FA. FA metabolism in SB is apparently characterized by a division between saturated and unsaturated FA, whereby LC-PUFA are preferentially incorporated into tissues and SFA are preferentially oxidized for energy production. We demonstrated provision of SFA in grow-out feeds for SB, instead MC-PUFA which compete for tissue deposition, meets energy demands and allows for maximum inclusion of LC-PUFA within fillet lipids.

Abstract
The fatty acid (FA) and dimethylacetal profiles of the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of different phospholipid (PL) classes from skeletal muscle of rats as affected by dietary FA profiles were studied. Rats were fed either a control diet, an olive oil-enriched diet, or a sunflower oil-enriched diet. The FA composition of both positions of the studied PL classes was affected by diet to different extents. The FA composition of the sn-2 position of phosphatidylserine was the most influenced by diet, while phosphatidylinositol was less affected by dietary modification. The FA profile of phosphatidylcholine reflected consumed FA better than any other studied PL. Thus, olive oil rats showed higher oleic acid (C18:1 n-9) contents in both positions of phosphatidylcholine, and sunflower oil rats had higher proportions of arachidonic acid (C20:4 n-6) in the sn-1 position of this PL class. Dimethylacetals were scarcely affected by diet, and only the dimethylacetal composition of phosphatidylethanolamine showed significant modifications.

Abstract
High lipid levels are being used in modern salmonid diets to promote rapid growth; however there is a limiting supply of the traditional fish oils as the fish farming industry expands. One way to utilize the lipid sources better, could be to find ways to stimulate fatty acid (FA) oxidation so that Atlantic salmon use more energy for muscle growth and less for storage in perivisceral adipose tissue. We have previously shown that dietary inclusion of the thia FA tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) promoted hepatic beta-oxidation and reduced total body lipid levels. However, dietary TTA also had some negative effects, leading to accumulation of sulfone and sulfoxide metabolites of TTA in the kidney and increasing mortality rates, particularly at low water temperatures. Therefore we also wish to investigate the effects of TTA on kidney function at high and low temperatures, including some immune system parameters. The production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) immunoreactive material from exogenously added arachidonic acid in isolated head kidney macrophages was affected by both diet and temperature. The phagocytic activity in these cells was reduced by DTA in the 12 degrees C group and there was significantly higher protein degradation in head kidney macrophages at 12 degrees C compared to 5 degrees C in all dietary groups. Interestingly, the incorporation of thia FAs in the kidney was higher at 5 degrees C (0.3% TTA and 0.6% DTA) than at 12 degrees C (0.1% TTA and 0.5% DTA). Additionally, there were lower levels of saturated FAs, while higher levels of polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) in the kidney of TTA fed fish at 5 degrees C. We also observed temperature-independent tubular dilatation and a reduction in the density of melanomacrophages of the kidney in salmon fed TTA. Nevertheless, the mRNA expression of some immune-relevant genes in head kidney tissue was not affected by TTA-inclusion in salmon diets. In conclusion, it is clear that 0.6% TTA-inclusion in the feed leads to changes in the kidney function particularly at low water temperatures.

Abstract
Regiospecific and traditional analysis, of both storage and membrane lipids, was performed on gill, white muscle, and red muscle samples taken from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to gauge the effect of elevated water temperature. The fish, fed a commercial diet, were held at an elevated water temperature of 19 degrees C. Total n-3 PUFA, total PUFA, and n-3/n-6 and unsaturated/saturated fatty acid (UFA/SFA) ratios in the FA profile of the total lipid extract in the white muscle were fairly low compared with fish grown at 15 degrees C. Adaptation of structural and storage lipids at elevated temperatures was shown by a significant (P < 0.01) reduction in PUFA especially in the percentage of EPA (6-8%). Further adaptation was indicated by the percentages of SFA, which were significantly (P< 0.05) higher in gill (56%) and white muscle (58%) polar lipid fractions and coincided with lower percentages of n-3, n-6, and total PUFA. The regiospecific profiles indicated a high affinity of DHA to the sn-2 position in both the TAG (61-68%) and polar lipid (35-60%) fractions. The combination of detailed regiospecific and lipid analyses demonstrated adaptation of cell membrane structure in Atlantic salmon grown at an elevated water temperature.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of in vivo administration of 3-thia fatty acids (FAs) on lipid metabolism in muscle and liver of Atlantic salmon were investigated. Prior to analysis, the fish were kept in tanks supplied with 5 degrees C seawater for 20 weeks. The fish were fed fish meal and fish oil (FO)-based diets supplemented with either nothing (FO), or 0.3% and 0.6% of the 3-thia FAs dodecylthioacetic acid (DTA) and tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) respectively. The fish grew from an initial weight of 110 g to 220 g in the FO group and to approximately 160 g in the 3-thia FA groups. There was a significant higher mortality (66%) in fish fed 0.6% TTA than in fish fed the 0.3% DTA (15%) and FO diets (15%). None of the 3-thia FA diets affected the lipid content of the salmon muscle. The liver index, however, was significantly higher and the total liver fat content lower in the TTA group than in the FO group. Both DTA and TTA were incorporated into the lipid fraction of muscle and liver (0.4% to 0.9%). There were no major differences in the total FA composition of liver and muscle between the dietary groups; except for a small increase of n-3 polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) in liver of the DTA group. The mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha, apolipoprotein AI (ApoAI), apolipoprotein CII (ApoCII) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) was down-regulated in liver of the salmon fed 0.3% DTA. PPARalpha and ApoAI transcripts were also reduced in liver of salmon fed 0.6% TTA. Additionally, the hepatic lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA level was 3.8 fold increased in TTA fish relative to the FO group. In muscle there were no significant changes in gene expression pattern of any of the genes investigated. This is the first report on the effects of 3-thia FAs on gene expression in Atlantic salmon.

Abstract
We have investigated the effects of a 3-thia fatty acid (TTA) and of temperature on the fatty acid (FA) metabolism of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). One experiment investigated the activity of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzyme, acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO), and the incorporation of TTA into phospholipid (PL) molecular species. Salmon hepatocytes in culture were incubated either without TTA (control(spades)) or with 0.8 mM TTA (TTA(spades)) in a short term (48 h) temperature study at 5 degrees C and at 12 degrees C. TTA was incorporated into the four PL classes studied: phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylserine (PS). TTA was preferentially esterified with 18:1, 16:1, 20:4 and 22:6 in the PLs. Hepatocytes incubated with TTA had higher ACO activity at 5 degrees C than at 12 degrees C. In a second experiment salmon were fed a diet based on fish meal-fish oil without any TTA added (control) or a fish meal-fish oil diet supplemented with 0.6% TTA for 8 weeks at 12 degrees C and 20 weeks at 5 degrees C. At the end of the feeding trial, hepatocytes from fish acclimated to high or low temperatures were isolated from both dietary groups and incubated with either [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 or [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 at 5 degrees C or 12 degrees C. Radiolabelled 18:1 n-9 was mainly esterified into neutral lipids (NL), whereas [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 was mainly esterified into PL at both temperatures. The rate of elongation of [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 to 20:1 n-9 was twice as high in hepatocytes from fish fed the control diet than it was in hepatocytes from fish fed the TTA diet, at both temperatures. The amount of [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 converted to 22:6 n-3 was approximately the same in hepatocytes from the two dietary groups, but there was a tendency to higher production of 22:6 n-3 at the lower temperature. Oxidation of [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 to acid soluble products (ASP) and CO(2) was approximately 10-fold greater in hepatocytes kept at 5 degrees C than in those kept at 12 degrees C and the main oxidation products formed were acetate, oxaloacetate and malate.

Abstract
The main phospholipids in rat peritoneal surface layer were analyzed by normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with electrospray ionization (ESI) ion-trap mass spectrometry (MS). By using a silica gel column and a gradient of hexane/isopropanol/water as mobile phase containing 5 mmol/L ammonium formate as modifiers, a baseline separation of glycerophosphoehtanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin (SM) and lyso-phosphatidylcholine (LPC) was obtained and more than 90 phospholipid constituents in rat peritoneal surface were identified and determined by on-line ion-trap MS detection. The major ethanolamine glycerophospholipids in rat peritoneal surfaces were plasmalogens that were highly enriched in polyunsaturated fatty acids at the sn-2 position. In addition, the fragmentation patterns for each phospholipid class by the ion-trap MS were discussed.

Abstract
A simple and robust LC-MS-based methodology for the investigation of lipid mixtures is described, and its application to the analysis of human lipoprotein-associated lipids is demonstrated. After an optional initial fractionation on Silica 60, normal-phase HPLC-MS on a YMC PVA-Sil column is used first for class separation, followed by reversed-phase LC-MS or LC-tandem mass spectrometry using an Atlantis dC18 capillary column, and/or nanospray MS, to fully characterize the individual lipids. The methodology is applied here for the analysis of human apolipoprotein B-associated lipids. This approach allows for the determination of even low percentages of lipids of each molecular species and showed clear differences between lipids associated with apolipoprotein B-100-LDL isolated from a normal individual and those associated with a truncated version, apolipoprotein B-67-containing lipoproteins, isolated from a homozygote patient with familial hypobetalipoproteinemia. The methods described should be easily adaptable to most modern MS instrumentation.

Abstract
Phospholipids are major components of bacterial membrane. Furthermore, the growth in vitro on xenobiotics such as n-alkanes, aromatic compounds or alkanols bring about to a bacterial membrane adaptive response. Concerning this work, we studied the membrane lipid composition of a hydrocarbon-degrading gram-positive bacterium (Corynebacterium sp.) on a soluble substrate and we detected four different phospholipid classes: phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, cardiolipin and acyl phosphatidylglycerol. In addition, a study of the lipid composition was performed after an in vitro culture on either pure n-alkane or crude oil. The growths on such hydrophobic substrates showed major qualitative and quantitative modifications. In the case of a growth on either heneicosane or crude oil, an increase of odd-numbered fatty acids was observed. Furthermore, the phospholipid polar head group composition was highly influenced by the crude oil addition. These modifications were, respectively, interpreted as the consequence of hydrocarbon assimilation and membrane fluidity adaptation. Finally, Corynebacterium sp. was taken back on the initial ammonium acetate substrate in order to determine its restoration abilities after a petroleum contamination.

Abstract
We investigated the membrane lipid composition of two hydrocarbon-degrading gram-negative bacterial strains (Pseudomonas nautica IP 617 and Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus) initially cultured on a soluble substrate, then on petroleum hydrocarbons, and finally taken back onto the soluble substrate. For the two strains, the growth on petroleum and the return to the initial medium showed major, but comparable, qualitative and quantitative modifications of the intact phospholipid molecular species (IPMS) composition. Furthermore, since bacterial membranes are mainly made up of phospholipids, these modifications reflected hydrocarbon assimilation, restoration abilities and membrane fluidity adaptation. The electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) analysis of intact phospholipid provided some new information (e.g. sn fatty acyl chain distribution) that could not be assessed by the classical fatty acid analysis. Moreover, such information should be particularly helpful with regards to bacterial taxonomy and xenobiotic toxicity studies.

Abstract
This work set out to optimize the detection and separation of several phospholipid molecular species on a reversed-phase column with the use of an electrospray ionization/mass spectrometry-compatible counter-ion. An application of this technique concerned a qualitative and quantitative analysis of bacterial membrane phospholipids extracted from Corynebacterium species strain 8. The phospholipid classes of strain 8 were identified as phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and a peculiar lipid compound, acyl phosphatidylglycerol. Most of the molecular species structures were elucidated, and regarding phosphatidylglycerol, the fatty acid positions were clearly determined with the calculation of the sn-2/sn-1 intensity ratio of the fatty acyl chain fragments.

Abstract
A reversed-phase HPLC method compatible with evaporative light scattering (ELS) and electrospray mass spectrometric (ES-MS) detection was developed for separation of phosphatidylserine (PS) molecular species. The method was optimised for separation of three disaturated synthetic species: dipalmitoyl glycerophosphoserine, palmitoyl-stearoyl glycerophosphoserine and distearoyl glycerophosphoserine using isocratic elution with a mixture of 2-propanol, tetrahydrofuran and ammonium formate. Baseline separation was obtained on three different columns: one polystyrene/divinylbenzene (PS/DVB) column and two silica based C(18) and C(30) columns. The best chromatographic resolution was achieved with the C(30) column. The limit of detection for DPPS was 5 microg/ml (S/N=3) with ELS detection and 0.1 microg/ml (S/N=3) with negative ion ES-MS in the single ion monitoring mode. Baseline separation of the five main species in a biological PS sample, bovine brain PS, was obtained with the PS/DVB column. Species identification was done by using the retention times of the intact PS species and their corresponding carboxylate anion fragments obtained by in-source fragmentation. Data have shown that individual PS species can be identified by their retention times using direct ELS detection in a mixture of disaturated PS species. However, for the bovine brain PS electrospray-MS detection was necessary for species identification due to the many possible fatty acid combinations in biological PS.

Abstract
A non-aqueous reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method coupled to electrospray ionisation (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry was developed for the analysis of triacylglycerols (TGs). The synthetic TGs studied were separated according to their equivalent carbon number with a gradient of methanol (containing 0.01% (v/v) formate adjusted to pH 5.3 with ammonia) and chloroform. ESI mass spectra of TGs yielded positive ion current signals for [M + NH(4)](+) and [M + NH(4)-RCOONH(4)](+). The mass spectra also showed signals believed to arise from [M + K](+). Collision-induced dissociation (CID) of the [M + NH(4)](+) precursor ion yielded [M + NH(4) - RCOONH(4)](+), [RCO + 74](+) and [RCO](+) product ions as aids for the structural elucidation of the TGs. In addition, [RCO - 18](+) and small amounts of [RCO - 2](+) product ions were also found. The latter ions were observed only for TGs containing unsaturated fatty acids. CID of ammoniated 1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-3-linoleoyl-glycerol (18:0/18:1/18:2) indicated that neutral loss of the sn-2 fatty acid was energetically less favourable than loss of the fatty acid from the sn-1 or sn-3 position.
