From the table we can determine that the sesame has high scavenging property
compared to other antioxidants.
The scavenging effect was determined by mean of DPPH for different concentration of
antioxidants such as 500, 1000, 1500,and was observed that the increases with the
increase in concentration of the natural antioxidant extracts with the maximum
occurring at 1500 ppm..

The phenolic content present in the natural antioxidant extracts were determined in
terms of Gallic Acid Equivalent by means of Folin-Ciocalteu Test.

4.4 RANCIMAT TEST RESULT:
The rancimat test is the final result of our project where the storage stability
of biodiesel with and without antioxidant extract can be determined.
