Explain surface area of lipid oxidation, Biology

Assignment Help:

Surface area

The rate of oxidation increases in direct proportion to the surface area of the lipid exposed to air. Furthermore, as surface - volume ratio is increased; a given reduction in oxygen partial pressure becomes less effective in decreasing the rate of oxidation. In oil-in-water emulsions, the rate of oxidation is governed by the rate at which oxygen diffuses into the oil phase.
