Abstract

Abstract: Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a naturally occurring compound produced in biological materials as a result of polyunsaturated lipid oxidation or from irradiation of certain compounds. Malondialdehyde chemistry has long been of interest in food science and has received attention recently because of suggestions that it may play a role in cellular aging and in a host of other degenerative biological transformations associated with lipid ...
