Quantitative Analysis and Structural Elucidation of Fatty Acids by Isobaric Multiplex Labeling Reagents for Carbonyl-Containing Compound (SUGAR) Tags and m-CPBA Epoxidation.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a novel analytical method was developed to investigate fatty acids (FAs) for relative quantification, carbon-carbon double-bond localization, and cis-/trans-geometry differentiation by isobaric multiplex labeling reagents for carbonyl-containing compound (SUGAR) tag conjugation and meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) epoxidation. FAs are essential components of cells and have diverse functions in energy storage and as complex lipid constituents. It has been reported that FAs play different roles in various biological processes such as the functional development of the brain. The comprehensive characterization and quantification of FAs are crucial to further elucidate their biological roles. However, it is challenging to perform relative quantif
