Description:... In recent years, the role of free radicals and antioxidants has become a part of the aetiology of a surprisingly large number of diseases. The area of cardiovascular research has now perhaps exceeded many of the others. Much remains however, to be learned about how oxidation is initiated and about the roles of different lipids and lipoproteins fractions.
