Since then, we have validated several methods for the determination of triacylglycerides, fatty acids, sterols, vitamins, carotenoids, phenolic compounds, chlorophylls etc. We also have a lot of experience in antioxidant analysis in other matrix: wines, juices, peanut butter, cocoa and biological samples like plasma and lipoproteins.
