Scientific Background: Lipid peroxidation occurs when oxidizing agents attack carbon-carbon double bonds found in unsaturated lipids. In addition to membrane degradation, oxidation end-products have been found to damage cell viability through their mutagenic and toxic properties. These downstream functional consequences facilitate the development of disease and premature aging. 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC) is a biomarker of lipoprotein cholesterol oxidation.
Field of Use: Not for use in humans. Not for use in diagnostics or therapeutics. For in vitro research use only.
