Expansion (1500-3000 s) of XIC for n-alkanes, n-alkanols, and n-fatty acids for representative samples of both pre-opening and pos-opening periods of the Valo Grande Channel in the Cananéia-Iguape Estuarine-Lagunar System. n in Cn is the carbon number. n-alkanes, n-alkanols, and n-fatty acids series were obtained by extracting chromatograms for the m/z 57.06983, 103.05729, and 117.03663, respectively.
