malondialdehyde
Lipid oxidation byproduct
Malondialdehyde is a compound produced when fats break down through oxidation, used as a marker of oxidative stress in biological research.
High levels indicate cell damage from free radicals.
Abbreviated MDA.
Malondialdehyde levels in the blood samples suggested significant lipid peroxidation.
