Ascorbic acid (Vitamin
C) is water soluble antioxidant, well suited to fruit systems.
Ascorbic
acid is a valuable antioxidant in water-based systems
and will preferentially degrade to protect the food system,
especially where there is the risk of enzymatic browning.
However, in some systems it can degrade to furfural and form
brown pigments, so shelf life testing is imperative.
Ascorbic
acid is readily soluble in water, but will degrade quickly
to dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), when mixed with oxygen.
