3.2. Prevention of lard oxidation
The Rancimat method is commonly used to evaluate
the antioxidative potency of various antioxidants and is
based on the increase of electrical conductivity due to
the formation of volatile dicarboxylic acids as a result of
lipid oxidation. The addition of EAERK to lard markedly
extended the induction time of lipid oxidation
(Table 2). The induction time of EAERK increased with
increasing concentration and was significantly (P
