  • Title: [Simplification of the dinitrophenylhydrazine method for the photometric determination of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid in fruit juices. I. Application to juice of black current (author's transl)].

    Journal: Z Lebensm Unters Forsch; 1975 Apr 07; 157(4):217-20. PubMed ID: 1229712.
    Abstract:
    The photometric determination of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid by preparing the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone derivative of dehydroascorbic acid and purifying it by thinlayerchromatography was simplified and adapted to the microliter system of Eppendorf Gerätebau, Hamburg, Germany. Using this method with juice of black current, quite reproducible results for vitamin C contents were obtained. Compared with the method of the International Federation of Fruit Juice Producers (titration with 2,6-dichlorphenolindophenol) the contents of vitamin C found with nine different commercial juices of black current were lower from 13 to 30%.
