“…20 Furthermore, as lipid oxidation takes place primarily at the oil and air interface, oils should be stored closed in a cool, dark place as they may oxidise faster once opened. However, it should also be born in mind that seed and vegetable oils inherently contain antioxidants, most importantly tocopherols 32,33 and phenolic compounds, 22,34 which inhibit lipid oxidation and keep the oils stable during storage and heating. Currently, food scientists are also investigating the addition of natural antioxidants, such as rosemary extract, as well as using the biofilms of these antioxidants to create active packaging to prevent the lipid oxidation of oils and oil-containing foods.…”
