Conteúdo: | Studies were conducted to determine the stability of vitamin C at elevated concentration in canned tropical fruit juices as nectars. Canned guava nectar, as well as juice of orange, tomato, and pineapple were fortified with ascorbic acid at seven different levels ranginf from the original content present in the samples to about 300 mg. Half of the samples were stored at room temperature and the other similar half at 100graus F. for a period of 6 months. The results indicated that the losses of vitamin C were higher in the samples stored at 100graus F. than in those stored at room temperature - regardless of the level of concentration. However, in the guava nectar the percentage of vitamin C destruction was relatively higher at lower concentrations and lower at higher concentrations at both temperatures.
