Abstract
Although hemoglobin of the red cells appears to be the preferred target of ozone attack, there are other substrates in blood which are susceptible to ozonolysis reactions: fatty acids and cholesterol. The reaction between cholesterol and ozone was explored both polarimetrically and spectrophotometrically and it has been shown that this molecule also can be degraded by ozone in blood.
