5-R/S-HETEs 319 319.5 → 115.27 27 −42
5- S-HETE-d8 327 327.50 → 116.30 28 −102
12- R/S-HETEs 319 319.24 → 179.09 26 −55
12-S-HETE-d8 327 327.24 → 184.09 22 −55
15- R/S-HETEs 319 319.31 → 219.30 20 −52
15- S-HETE-d8 327 327.20 → 226.05 20 −52

In chiral LC, the R- and S-enantiomers of each HETE are resolved and elute as 2 distinct peaks. Both peaks for each HETE were quantified relative to the respective S-HETE-d8 internal standard.
