Triacylglycerols are preferentially oxidized over free fatty acids in heated soybean oil

Abstract In oil, free fatty acids (FFAs) are thought compared the efficiency of hydrolysis wto be the preferred substrate for lipid oxidation although triacylglycerols (TAGs) are the predominant lipid class. We determined the preferential oxidation substrate (TAGs versus FFAs) in soybean oil heated...
