Chromatographic separation was conducted on a Brownlee SPP C18 column (2.1 mm 75 mm, 2.7 m particle size, Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA) using mobile phase A (100% H2O containing 0.1% formic acid and 1% of 1 M NH 4 OAc) and B (1:1 acetonitrile:isopropanol containing 0.1% formic acid and 1% of 1 M NH 4 OAc)
