- Abstract
The article presents a study which examines the presence and formation of Lysophosphatidic Acid (LPA), a wound healing lipid, in various vegetables. The study used matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) to quantify LPA in vegetables. Results show that cabbage leaves are the richest source of LPA and that LPA was formed during the mastication of the cabbage leaves and could have been induced by phospholipase D (PLD).
