Content
General introduction to ESR spectroscopy and instrumental parameters. Radicals in foods and their quantification and characterisation. Assays for evaluating oxidation reactions and anti-oxidative effects. Testing oxidative stability of foods. Simulation of ESR spectra. Spin trapping and spin probes.

Learning outcome
The course will provide the students with basic understanding of ESR spectroscopy and the instrumentation. Practical exercises will give the students competences in using ESR spectroscopy for studies of real food systems, and evaluating and interpreting results.

Literature
Book chapters and reviews will be handed out during the course.
