a, b Representative EICs and CID-MS/MS spectra of GD1a 36:1;O2 and GD1b 36:1;O2 from porcine and mouse brains, respectively. c Representative EIC of GQ1c 36:1;O2 with 2 O-acetylation from porcine and mouse brain. d CID-MS/MS spectra of GQ1c 36:1;O2 with 2 O-acetylation from mouse brain were shown. Diagnostic ions were highlighted with red asterisks. Monosaccharide legend: blue circle-Glucose, yellow circle-Galactose, Yellow square-N-acetylgalactosamine, Purple diamond-N-acetylneuraminic acid, Red triangle-Fucose. The ceramide tail was indicated by ‘Cer’.
