General description:
C18:1 Ceramide (d18:1/18:1(9Z)) or N-oleoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine is a synthetic ceramide containing sphingosine with oleic acid.
application:
C18:1 Ceramide (d18:1/18:1(9Z)) may be used as a standard:
to quantify ceramide content in muscle tissue samples using high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS2)
for the absolute quantification of epidermal lipids using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS)
for the ratiometric quantification of sphingomyelin (SM)
