Abstract

Sir: The dialdehyde, propanedial, OHC-CH2-CH0, commonly known as malonaldehyde or malondialdehyde, is a compound present in many biological systems (1). Malonaldehyde in foods has generally been associated with oxidative rancidity (2, 31, although it has been detected in a range of unspoiled meats, fish, vegetable oils, orange juice, etc.(4, 5).
