Negative ion electrospray ionization LC/MS analysis of lipid extracts was performed on a Thermo Scientific (San Jose, CA, USA) Vantage TSQ mass spectrometer with Thermo Accela UPLC operated by Xcalibur software. Lipids were separated on a Restek 150 × 2.1 mm (5 µm particle size) Viva C4 column under established conditions. The tetramyristoyl CL internal standard (m/z 1,240, [M-H]-) elutes at 13.6 minutes while tetralinoleoyl CL (m/z 1,448, [M-H]-) elutes at 14.4 minutes. Complete details of CL analysis by LC/MS are provided elsewhere[16 (link), 21 (link)–24 (link)].
