Notes:
Peroxidised linoleic acid reacts with acidified thiobarbituric acid to give a chromogen absorbing maximally at 532 nm. This TBA reactant is chromatographically identical to the TBA-MDA adduct formed from linolenic acid and a pure MDA standard. Considerably less MDA is produced by peroxidised linoleic acid compared to that formed from linolenic acid. In this respect the type of acid used for the colour reaction appears to be important.
