Does lysine drive the conversion of fatty acid hydroperoxides to aldehydes and alkyl-furans?

During the oxidation of lipids in food or in vivo, fatty acids are initially converted to hydroperoxides, which undergo decomposition to various secondary decomposition products, including aldehydes and alkyl-furans. Aldehydes and alkyl-furans reduce the sensory quality of food by contributing to ra...
