18. In TTAB micelles the presence of methyl linoleate with α-TOH and no initiator caused significant antioxidant consumption. Thus, methyl linoleate was excluded from these experiments.
19. Preliminary experiments have been carried out measuring the rates of initiator decomposition in molecular aggregates such as micelles and liposomes by nitrogen evolution. These preliminary studies suggest that the assumption of a common rate of decomposition for C-0, C-8, C-12, and C-16 is reasonable. To be submitted for publication: S. M. Culbertson, N. A. Porter, L. R. C. Barclay, and M. Vinqvist.
20. If the micelle captures urate because of charge effects, urate will compete effectively for lipophilic peroxyl radicals. C-0 decomposes in the aqueous phase where UA can scavenge a large fraction of the free radicals before partitioning into the lipid phase.
21. See, for example: Fendler, J. H.; Fendler, E. J. Catalysis in Micellar and Macromolecular Systems; Academic Press: New York, 1975.
22. The initiators C-8, C-12, and C-16 primarily decompose in the lipid aggregate where both free radicals generated can be quickly scavenged by α-TOH in the immediate vicinity.
23. 5 Our experience with the antioxidant DPPD implicated it did not function the same as α-TOH in micelles and liposomes tested. In fact, results suggest that there is an interconnection (possibly a regeneration of uryl radical) between UA and DPPD across the aqueous/lipid interface (data not shown).
