Fatty acid of moringa oleifera oil at different sample condition

Moringa oleifera (M.O) is widely known as the miracle tree which has been recognized as one of the possible resources that can produces biodiesel using a transesterification process supported with a base catalyst. Theoretically, most of the research on the fatty acid in M.O oil is based on dry sampl...
