Abstract
The sensitizing dyes for photo which are cyanine homologues have been used as medicine and cosmetics. Their uses are widespread. The authors expected that these dyes might serve as antioxidants by a radical termination mechanism such as hydroperoxy radicals added to the many conjugated double bonds which exist in the dyes. Determination of the induction period by the weighing method confirmed that some sensitizing dyes for photo are available as antioxidants in the autoxidation of methyl linoleate. Therefore, these dyes may serve as new types of antioxidants.
