Sphingomyelin (d18:1/12:0) or N-(dodecanoyl)-sphing-4-enine-1-phosphocholine has been used as a lipid standard for phospholipid quantification by mass spectroscopy (MS) analysis.
ChEBI: N-lauroylsphingosine-1-phosphocholine is a sphingomyelin d18:1 in which the ceramide N-acyl group is specified as dodecanoyl (lauroyl). It is a sphingomyelin 30:1 and a sphingomyelin d18:1.
Sphingomyelin (d18:1/12:0) or N-(dodecanoyl)-sphing-4-enine-1-phosphocholine serves as a substrate for sphingomyelinase.
