Abstrakt: Ethoxyquin is an effective antioxidant for both fish oil and fish meal but its antioxidant activity often follows an initial burst of pro-oxidant activity. Some oxidation products of ethoxyquin are shown to be powerful antioxidants as determined from measurements by the Warburg manometric technique. Of the compounds examined, 2,6-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-6-quinone imine and ethoxyquin nitroxide showed marked antioxidant activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
