Abstract

Palm oil contains 50 % SFA (Saturated Fatty Acid), 40 % MUFA (Monounsaturated Fatty Acid), 10 % PUFA (Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid) and antioxidants such as vitamin E and carotene. Composition of fatty acids and antioxidants play a role in determining the production of ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) in the tissues of the body. This research is aimed to determine the effect of a high palm oil diet on malondialdehyde concentration in rat’s blood. This research was an experimental study which applies post test only control group design. Sample amounted to 10 male wistar rats, were divided into two research groups those are control group rats which were administrated standard diet and treatment group rats which were administrated addition of 42.5 % palm oil to standar diet. After one month treatment, malondialdehyde concentrations were observed. The result of this study exhibited there was significant defference (p<0.05) between MDA concentration in treatment group rats (2.494±0.504 nmol/ml) and control group rats (3.152±0.237 nmol/ml). From the result of this research may be concluded that high palm oil diet decreased MDA concentration of rat’s blood. Keyword : Palm Oil, SFA, MUFA, antioxidant, ROS, MDA
