Mono-Tertiary Butylhydroquinone (MTBHQ) is a synthetic antioxidant belonging to the hydroquinone class. Widely used as a food additive, it prevents oxidative rancidity and extends the shelf life of various food products. MTBHQ effectively inhibits the oxidation of fats and oils, preventing the formation of harmful free radicals that cause spoilage. It helps preserve the flavor, color, and quality of processed foods, especially those containing high levels of unsaturated fats and oils. MTBHQ is commonly found in oils, fats, cereals, baked goods, snacks, and beverages.
