Thus, due to the progressive nature of this reaction, it is necessary to employ more than one assay to monitor
the reaction, since a single assay cannot measure the whole process, nor can it be equally useful at all stages of oxidation. Furthermore, it is also crucial to identify specific oxidation products formed at each stage of the reaction. As a result, well-established lipid oxidation assays are aimed at quantifying the loss of reactants or formation of oxidation end-products
