Novel detection protocol for Radical Scavenging and Antioxidant activity of

Lipophilic Antioxidants

L

ipophilic antioxidants are an important class

of chemical species of natural antioxidants

that can increase the oxidative stability of food

matrices. Common methods to determine

the antioxidant activity or oxidative stress of

lipophilic antioxidants require time consuming

protocols, although those are not vigorously

reliable. This work proposes a fast, simple and

direct method based on cyclic voltammetry to

monitor oxidation in lipid samples. Methodology

& Theoretical Orientation: The oxidative

stress during the reaction of AIBN (2, 2´-azobis

(20methylpropionitrile)) with lipid soluble

antioxidants, such as α-tocopherol, catechin,

retinyl acetate, caffeic acid and 3-hydxoxytyrosol

was evaluated. 1-propanol was used as a unique

solvent, which allowed direct dissolution of

a wide range of lipid soluble redox species.

Electron transfer (ET) capacity was evaluated by

the peak current (ip) and peak potential (E). The

kinetic rate of the reactions between laboratory

antioxidants and AIBN were measured at 60°C.

Finally, same procedure was also applied to

measure the antioxidant activity and oxidative

stress of different commercial edible oils: extra

virgin olive oil (EVOO), virgin olive oil (VOO) and,

olive by product; sansa olive oil (SOO). Findings:

The methods demonstrated that antioxidant

activity was positively correlated with increased

concentrations among the laboratory antioxidants

and EVOO, VOO and SOO samples. On the

other hand, oxidative stresses were negatively

correlated with the duration of reaction periods.

Conclusion & Significance: This method can be

the alternative of traditional methods to test lipid

soluble antioxidants in lipid matrices rapidly and

straight.
