Commercially bottled, vitamin C-fortified, cranberry
juice cocktail and cranberry-apple (cranapple) juice
drinks were stored at 5°C under simulated home-use
conditions. Ascorbic acid (AA) and dehydroascorbic acid
(DHA) levels were evaluated over a period of seven days by
high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Total
vitamin C content was also determined by...
The purpose of this.investigation was to determine how enzymes and oxygen influence the role ascorbic acid has on pigment degradation and browning during storage for strawberry juice and concentrate.
The ascorbic and dehydroascorbic acid content of blanched and unblanched, nitrogen-treated and air-exposed samples of strawberry juice and concentrate was measured...
The concentration of ascorbic acid in the plasma was determined on
four levels of ascorbic acid intake for seven day periods in 1946-47 and
on three levels of ascorbic acid intake for ten day periods in 1947-48.
The subjects, eight girls and eight boys, were 16 to 19 year old...
Thirty-six female guinea pigs were placed on a scorbutogenic
diet for 14 days and then divided into groups of four. Three groups
received adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) with each group given
10, 20, or 40 units. Three groups each received 50 mg of ascorbic
acid and three groups received 50 mg...
Thirteen healthy adult males, ages 20-40, consuming self selected
diets, were given instructions to take one 500 mg tablet of ascorbic
acid three times a day with their meals for a period of ten weeks. The
effect of this daily supplementation on copper status was investigated.
An estimation made from...
A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
procedure using a LiChrosorb-NH₂ column and a eluant
buffer of 75:25 (v/v) of acetonitrile:0.05 M KH₂P0₄, pH
5.95, was developed for the successful separation and
determination of ascorbic and erythorbic acids in selected
food samples.
Application of the method, which is sensitive, rapid
and...
1. The recommended allowance of the National Reasearch
Council, 100 mg ascorbic acid for the 18-year-old boys and 80 mg
for the 16 to 19-year-old girls, did not maintain mean plasma ascorbic
acid values at levels as high as the respective saturation means. For
the girls all the mean values...
