Overview

Discovery lipidomics aims to measure a biological system’s complete set of lipids in an unbiased manner. The diversity of chemical composition and natural abundance levels challenge chromatographic and mass spectrometric performance. Waters discovery lipidomics solutions are developed to deliver comprehensive lipidome coverage that includes:

  • Deepest coverage for a diverse lipidome: ACQUITY Premier minimizes lipid loss while ion-mobility maximizes peak capacity, measuring more of the lipidome.
  • Confident lipid identification with ion mobility: High-resolution mass spectrometry combines with data independent acquisition, CCS measurements and library support.
  • Analytical flexibility to study lipids in new ways: Extending LC-MS/MS capability with unique ion mobility experiments and imaging applications with DESI XS.

Applications

Combining a high-performance LC, such as the ACQUITY Premier System with ion mobility – high resolution mass spectrometry, powers high peak capacity lipid separations for discovery lipidomics and delivers valuable Collision Cross-Section (CCS) measurements for all species. Learn how to take your lipidomics profiling further with these application notes.
