Lipid oxidation products as a potential health and analytical problem

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2015, Vol 69, Issue 2

Abstract

Lipids, especially unsaturated ones, are unstable compounds which easily undergo oxidation reactions. Difficult to analyze, oxidized lipids are a mixture of different compounds which not only cause the deterioration of food quality, but also lead to adverse changes in the human body. This article presents a general mechanism of lipid oxidation reaction and shows the importance of the resulting products in terms of food, cosmetic raw materials and human health. The available analysis methods of lipid oxidation products and the associated problems are also discussed.
