The isotope effect on lipid peroxidation refers to the influence of different isotopes of elements on the rates and mechanisms of lipid peroxidation reactions. Lipid peroxidation is a process where free radicals attack lipids containing carbon-carbon double bonds, particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids, leading to the formation of lipid peroxides and other oxidative products. This process can impact cell membrane integrity and has been implicated in various diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative disorders.
