Measuring Lipid Oxidation in Vegetable Oils

This application note explains research conducted to evaluate the lipid oxidation levels in vegetable oils and marine omega-3 supplements by using the MP SafTest™ method. Peroxides were evaluated with the PeroxySafe STD kit. This method allows the researcher to quickly and accurately determine peroxides in vegetable oils and marine omega-3 supplements. The sample is tested in its pure form to maximize the amount of peroxides measured.
