Abstract
The ability of glycyrrhizic acid to form complexes with the products of cholesterol oxidation was studied. The effect of complexing on the rate of cholesterol oxidation with ozone was studied. It was shown that the formation of complex with glycyrrhizic acid may become an efficient approach to govern the level of cholesterol inside and outside of cell membranes, and to extract the products of cholesterol oxidation.
