Abstract

A method to stabilize acylglycerols comprising ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids against oxidative degradation characterized in that γ-cyclodextrin is mixed either batchwise or continuously with the acylglycerol comprising ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, thus forming a γ-CD/acylglycerol complex.
