Effect of Lipid Peroxides on Fat Absorption and Folic Acid Status in the Rat

Abstract: Addition of oxidized linoleate to the diet of rats resulted in a decreased rate of weight gain, an increased calorie requirement for each gram of weight gained, an impairment of fat absorption and an increase in the weight and length of the small intestine. The white cell count, blood haemoglobin levels and the concentration of folic acid in serum and urine were found to be reduced. Of the two metabolically active derivatives of folic acid examined in urine specimens, folinic acid levels showed a significant r… Show more

“…Monitoring and control of lipid peroxidation in food are of great importance due to increasing demand for good quality products. Lipid peroxidation, the oxidative deterioration of the polyunsaturated lipids of food, leads through formation of hydroperoxides to short-chain aldehydes, ketones, and other oxygenated compounds which are considered to be responsible for the development of rancidity in stored foods (Gray, 1978;Melton, 1983;Wong, 1989) and related to experimental heart disease, cancer, and aging in animals (Ohio and Tappel, 1969;Kaunitz and Johnson, 1973;Cutler and Hayward, 1974). Malondialdehyde (MDA), a major degradation product of lipid hydroperoxides, has attracted much attention as a marker for assessing the extent of lipid peroxidation (Raharjo and Sofos, 1993).…”

“…Thus, high peroxide values occur after prolonged storage, exposure to sunlight, increased temperatures, and contact with iron or copper as in cooking vessels (Frazer, 1962). Dietary fatty acid hydroperoxides can be toxic to the gastrointestinal tract and can be carcinogenic (Cutler and Hayward, 1974; Cutler and Schneider, 1973). The identification of the catalysts in animal tissues which are responsible for the oxidation of unsaturated fats is therefore important, not only because of its pertinence to food preservation, but also for health reasons.…”
