The LIPID MAPS® Computationally-generated Bulk Lipids (COMP_DB) is a virtual database composed of major classes of lipid species, generated from a list of commonly occurring acyl/alkyl chains.
These "bulk" lipid species indicate the number of carbons and number of double bond equivalents, but not chain positions or double bond regiochemistry and geometry.
