Abstract

Recent developments in LC-MS instrumentation and analytical technologies together with bioinformatics tools supporting high-throughput processing of large omics datasets significantly enhanced our capabilities and efficiency of identification and quantification of lipids in diverse biological materials. However, each biological matrix is characterized by its unique lipid composition, thus requiring optimization of analytical and bioinformatics workflows for each studied lipidome. Here, we describe an integrated workflow for deep lipidome profiling, accurate annotation, and semi-absolute quantification of complex lipidomes based on reversed phase chromatography and high resolution mass spectrometry. This chapter provides details on selection of the optimal extraction protocol, acquisition of LC-MS/MS data for accurate annotation of lipid molecular species, and design of lipidome-specific mixtures of internal standards to assist quantitative analysis of complex, native lipidomes.
