  1. Raji cells were treated with Rapamycin or vehicle for 60 minutes as described in Materials and Methods, then divided into matching aliquots for NIMS analysis. Metabolites with unambiguous MS/MS fragmentation patterns that represent disparate metabolic pathways were also quantified and compared to reference standards via LC-MS/MS, and are shown here.
