The paper discusses a theoretical model for the kinetics of the process of lipid peroxidation, which takes into account the effect of the synergy of vitamins E and C. Approximations are analyzed that make it possible to simplify the model system, taking into account the peculiarities of the process of lipid peroxidation. The resulting model is minimal and adequately describes the process of lipid peroxidation at stages significant for the effective control of this process as a whole.

 

Keywords: kinetics, peroxidation, cell membranes, radicals, antioxidants, synergy effect, α-tocopherol, ascorbate.
