title: Identification of arsenolipids with GC/MS.
abstract: Arsenic-containing hydrocarbons have recently been reported as natural constituents of fish oil. We report a simple method for determining these compounds by GC/MS. Application of the methodology will delineate the distribution of these novel arsenic compounds in foods, and facilitate an assessment of the toxicological implications.
