Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA's) in oils 0.g. sunflower oil are prone to rancidity because they contain conjugated double bond systems which are easily oxidized in the presence of light or peroxides. BHT Is used as an antioxidant in oils to prevent oxidative rancidity. How do BHT prevent oils from reacting with peroxides so that they do not become rancid? Show the mechanism.
