Does annybody know a good article, book, or review on th following topic :
'Fragmentation pathways of triglycerides (triacylglycerols) in Mass 
Spectroscopy' ?

Paul, 

try Chapter 6 in the 'Handbook of Lipid Research' 7 (series editor:
Fred Snyder), 'Mass Spectrometry of Lipids' by Robert C. Murphy, 
Plenum Press, New York 1993. 

This chapter deals with the mass spectrometric analysis of Tri-, 
Di- and Monoacylglycerols. I hope you will find there the information
you are looking for. 

Good luck, 

Achim Treumann

I done a bit of lipid mass spec, but haven't done anything with
triacylglycerols.  This sounds like something that might best be served by
a triple quad mass spec (especially if you are interested in the
constituent FAs.  You might want to check with Dr. Ski Chilton at the
Bowman Gray School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, NC.  He has done quite a
bit of relavent work.  He is in the Department of Medicine, Section on
Pulmonary and Critical Care.  Good luck. 

Steve
