  1. aNF structures are represented following the convention (Spaink, 1992) [43] that indicates the number of GlcNAc residues in the backbone (Roman numeral), the length and degree of unsaturation of the fatty acyl chain, and the other substituents, which are listed in the orr in which they appear, moving clockwise from the fatty acid. Hex, hexose; Hex-ol, hexytol (reduced terminal hexose); NMe, N-methyl group at glucosamine non reducing residue; S, sulfate group at reducing glucosamine residue.
  2. bSymbol: + = detected; − = non detected.
  3. cThese ions arise by loss of a neutral with mass 80 Da, corresponding to the loss of SO3.
