Characteristic cereal biomarker lipids from the reference materials. Where (a) shows the trimethylsilyated sitosterol and sitosterol fatty acid esters in the wheat displayed using the extracted ion trace of m/z 396.3756; (b) shows the trimethylsilyated sitosterol and sitosterol fatty acid esters from the maize displayed using the extracted ion trace of m/z 396.3756 and (c) shows the alkyl resorcinols present in the reference wheat displayed using the extracted ion trace of m/z 268.1315.
