Phospholipid (PL) fatty acid composition and stereospecific distribution of 25 genetically modified soybean lines having a wide range of compositions were determined by GC and phospholipase hydrolysis (Wang et al., 1997). PL class proportions were affected by changes in overall fatty acid composition. PL fatty acid composition was changed with oil fatty acid modification, especially for palmitate, stearate, and linolenate.

Byrdwell and Emken (1995) and Neff and Byrdwell (1995) have described the application of atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI)/MS to the qualitative analysis of simple homogeneous (mono-acid) TGs and genetically modified soybean oils separated by reversed-phase HPLC. The mass spectra obtained were relatively simple and consisted primarily of DG ions, [M — RCOO]" or [DG] , and protonated molecular ions, [M + 1]. The degree of unsaturation was the primary factor in determining the amount of DG ions compared with TG ions formed. DG fragments were the base peaks in spectra of TGs containing less than three or four sites of unsaturation. Mass spectra of TGs with three or four sites of unsaturation contained...
