title: Impact of nutrients on cellular lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense system.
abstract: A symposium entitled Impact of Nutrients on Cellular Lipid Peroxidation and Antioxidant Defense System was held at the 33rd Annual Meeting of the Society of Toxicology (SOT) at the Loews Anatole Hotel in Dallas, Texas. The symposium was sponsored by the Food Safety Specialty Section and focused on the role of particular nutrients in cellular lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense system. Emphasis was placed on defining underlying mechanisms for damage and protection, as well as potential ramification in human health issues.
