Micellar
catalysis in the lipid oxidation
Abstract
Catalytic effects of surfactants (S) on the lipid and hydrocarbon
oxidation have been discussed. Hydroperoxides (ROOH), the primary amphiphilic
products of lipid oxidation by molecular oxygen, were shown to form mixed
micelles {nROOH..mS} together with known cationic surfactants, in which the
accelerated decomposition of ROOH occurs; other polar components namely metal
compounds, inhibitors etc. can be concentrated in mixed micelles as well, what
affects significantly the oxidation rate and mechanism.
