Acetic acid at a concentration of 0.02% (v/v) is the suggested choice as a mobile-phase additive for lipidomics and targeted lipid profiling with negative LC/ESI-MS based on signal enhancement and improved lipid coverage compared to ammonium acetate, ammonium acetate with acetic acid and ammonium hydroxide mobile phases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
