Abstrakt: Singlet oxygen produced by photochemical sensitizers may play an important role in the oxidation of lipids in foods. Therefore, we studied the singlet oxygen oxidation of lipids and the scavenging ability of antioxidants. Singlet oxygen was generated using the photosensitizer rose bengal. The oxidation products of lipids and antioxidants were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography and monitored using post-column chemiluminescence and/or iodometric detection. The competitive reaction rates of various antioxidants and lipids were studied to elucidate the roles played by antioxidants in the prevention of food oxidation by singlet oxygen.
