High sensitivity negative ion GC-MS method for detection of desaturated and chain-elongated products of deuterated linoleic and linolenic acids.

A sensitive negative chemical ionization (NCI) gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method for the detection of pentafluorobenzyl (PFB) esters of deuterated fatty acids is described. Deuterated linoleic [18:2n-6 2H4-9,10,12,13] and linolenic [18:3n-3 2H5-17,17,18,18,18] acids were converted...
