Greenhouse Tomatoes

The ascorbic acid (vitamin C) content of fresh imported field tomatoes and Nova Scotia greenhouse and field tomatoes was determined on a bi-weekly basis during the period of availability of each type of tomato to the Nova Scotia consumer in 1984. The average ascorbic acid contents of imported and Nova Scotia field and greenhouse tomatoes were 13.3, 16.7 and 17.7 mg 100 g−1 fresh weight, respectively. A study of nine recommended or promising field tomatoes for the Atlantic region showed significant differences in ascorbic acid content among the cultivars. The cultivar Quick Pick had the highest ascorbic acid content of 22.5 ± 1.5 mg 100 g−1, the cultivar Campbell 18 had the lowest content, 12.0 ± 2.9 mg 100 g−1. In Dombito greenhouse tomatoes the stage of maturity and the effect of cluster location were tested against ascorbic acid content. The lowest ascorbic acid content of 9.1 ± 1.0 mg 100 g−1 was found with the small green tomatoes while others from mature green to overripe contained 14.0–16.7 mg 100 g−1. Tomatoes from different cluster locations showed no significant difference in ascorbic acid content.Key words: Vitamin C, L-ascorbic acid, tomatoes

Abstract A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatographic method for determination of total vitamin C in foods and beverages is described. Ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid are extracted with sulfuric acid solution, and the dehydroascorbic acid in the extract is reduced to ascorbic acid by dithiothreitol at pH 7. The reduction is complete in 2 min at room temperature. The resulting total ascorbic acid is separated on an anion exclusion/high speed column with 20mM sulfuric acid as eluant and detected amperometrically with a platinum electrode operating at +0.6-0.8 V vs Ag/AgCl reference electrode. Dithiothreitol (retention time, 3.2 min) does not interfere with the separation and detection of ascorbic acid (retention time, 1.3 min). The dehydroascorbic acid content can be estimated as the difference in ascorbic acid content measured with and without reduction by dithiothreitol. The completeness of the reduction was demonstrated by purposely allowing the oxidation of ascorbic acid in the food extract and determining the total vitamin C after reduction. The determinations of vitamin C content in selected foods and beverages were in good agreement with the expected values. Total analysis time for vitamin C is 10 min and the detection limit is 0.1 ng. The method is specific for vitamin C, and interference by other food constituents is minimal.

Maximum Content

The results of the ascorbic acid content in the fruits and leaves of 10 persimmon cultivars from the Nikitsky Botanical Gardens’ collection are presented. It has been established that the concentration of ascorbic acid in technical persimmon fruits is 19,8-56,3 mg / 100 g, and in mature fruits it is 70-85% lower (5,08-8,96 mg / 100 g). Persimmon leaves contain 5-20 times more ascorbic acid than in fruits. The results showed the ability to use persimmon leaves as an additional source of vitamin C. The maximum content of ascorbic acid is allocated to the fruits of the cultivars Virginskaya Krupnoplodnaya, Delishes, Sidles and leaves of the cultivars Sidles and Zolotistaya.

This study was designed to measure and compare the total phenols, flavonoids and vitamin C contents in four orange juice brands which are commercially available in Iran. Total phenols, flavonoids and ascorbic acid content of 100 samples from four different commercial brands were evaluated by the spectrometric method. The concentration of total phenol in commercial orange juice samples was between 28.39 and 114.20 mg gallic acid equivalent per liter (mg GAE/L). The measured range of total flavonoids was from 12.53 to 32.62 mg quercetin equivalent per liter (mg QE/L) and the content of ascorbic acid in the samples was between 29.95 and 93.08 mg/L. The results showed a significant difference between the four brand`s total phenols, flavonoids and vitamin C level (P< 0.05). According to the found variation among different studied brands, setting a determined amount for the measured parameters is suggested.
