The antioxidative activity of ethanolic extracts of canola meal at 100, 200, 500 and 1000 ppm on refined-bleached (RB) canola oil was examined and compared with commonly used synthetic antioxidants, such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), BHA/BHT/monoglyceride citrate (MGC) and tert-butyl-hydroquinone (TBHQ). Stability of RB oil was monitored under Schaal oven test conditions at 65°C over a 17-d period. Progression of oxidation was monitored by weight gain, peroxide, conjugated diene, 2-thiobarbituric acid and total oxidation values. Canola extracts at 500 and 1000 ppm were more active than BHA, BHT and BHA/BHT/MGC and less effective than TBHQ at a level of 200 ppm. © 1994 AOCS Press.
