Propanedial (Malondialdehyde) (13.88 mM in water) is one of the final products of lipid peroxidation. Propanedial causes protein inactivation, DNA damage and cross-linking by forming stable covalent adducts with biological macromolecules, which is the main mechanism for its cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Propanedial production increases with the elevation of free radicals. Propanedial is a key biomarker for evaluating the level of cellular oxidative stress[1][2][3].
