Abstract
Lipoxygenase (linoleate: oxygen oxidoreductase EC 1.13.11.12) participates in the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to specific hydroperoxides. The mechanism is presumed to be a free radical reaction. Secondary reactions, particularly those involving plant pigments, are discussed and possible pathways for bleaching are presented.
