description | Vitamin C is also called
ascorbic acid and ascorbate. Usually,
vitamin C can be found in citrus fruits,
bell peppers, guavas, papayas,
cruciferous vegetables, and tomatoes.
Synthetic vitamin C supplement is also
widely sold in pharmacies. Vitamin C is
needed for normal growth and
development of the human body, and it
also functions as an antioxidant to
provide plants protection from side�effects of light during photosynthesis in
plants. Shortage of vitamin C in humans
may result in scurvy disease. Synthetic
and food-derived vitamin C are
chemically identical, however there is
increasing consumer interest in natural
food-derived vitamin C. This chapter
provides a review of the technology used
to extract vitamin C from orange juice,
treatment of extracted vitamin C, quality
control tests on the food-derived vitamin
C, as well as the advantages of using
these technologies to produce food�derived vitamin C. |
