Main description:

This volume complements Lipid Oxidation Pathways, Volume 1 by focusing on the oxidation kinetics and mechanisms governing the behavior of different molecular species involved in lipid oxidation reactions. It provides a more detailed review of the reactions of other lipid molecules than conventional polyunsaturated fatty acids.
