Formation of TBARS followed similar trends. These
results were consistent with a previous study that reported when
metal ions are freely available, the oxidative stability of lipids
was lower in CN- than in BSA-stabilized sunflower O/W emulsions
(Villiere et al., 2005). The higher oxidation rate in the CN-stabilized
emulsion might be because the affinity for iron of the phosphate
groups on casein molecules is higher and stronger than that of
the carboxylate groups present on other proteins
