Abstract

Deodorizer distillates of cottonseed oil (DODC) and palm oil (DODP) contained moisture 0.54, 0.46 unsaponifiable  matter% 9.0, 14.9 tocopheralo %0.14, 2.15 oxidized fatty acid %0.51, 0.84, acid value 10.35, 145.65, saponification value 182.4, 176.0 and peroxide value 3.74, 5.91 respectively. Using different concentrations (0.05, 0.1 and 0.3%) of unsaponifiable matter (USM) for each DOD increased the stability of sunflower seed oil. The results indicated that USM of DODP was more effective as natural antioxidant than that of  DODC.
