Introduction
Lipid oxidation is a major concern in the food industry, as it leads to the deterioration of food quality, development of off-flavors, and loss of essential nutrients. Omega-3 enriched foods, which are becoming increasingly popular due to their health benefits, are particularly susceptible to lipid oxidation due to the presence of unsaturated fatty acids. Understanding and controlling lipid oxidation in omega-3 enriched foods is crucial for ensuring their quality and shelf-life.

Project Research Overview on Lipid Oxidation in Omega-3 Enriched Foods
Lipid oxidation is a complex chemical process that occurs in foods containing unsaturated fatty acids, such as omega-3 enriched foods. This project aims to investigate the factors influencing lipid oxidation in omega-3 enriched foods and to explore strategies for preventing or delaying this process. The literature review will provide a comprehensive overview of lipid oxidation, omega-3 fatty acids, and current trends in omega-3 enriched foods. The research methodology will detail the design, sampling, data collection, and analysis techniques used in the study. The discussion of findings will present the results of the research and their implications for the food industry. Finally, the conclusion will summarize the key findings, draw conclusions, and offer recommendations for practitioners and future research directions.
