Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids present in fish oil (FO) are highly susceptible to oxidation. Natural and synthetic antioxidants are effectively applied to stabilize FO against oxidation. This study was focused to evaluate the synergistic antioxidant effect of three plant extracts (1% w/v) prepared from Plectranthus amboinicus (Country borage, K), Moringa oleifera (Drumstick, M) and Ocimum sanctum Linn (Tulsi, T).
