Why testing Ascorbic Acid is important

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) is a vital nutrient and antioxidant commonly found in food and beverages. Testing ensures products meet quality standards, maintain nutritional content, and comply with industry regulations.

• Low Ascorbic Acid: Can indicate nutrient loss, poor product quality, or ineffective processing in food and beverage production.
• High Ascorbic Acid: Rare, but may affect product taste or interfere with processing measurements if concentrations are inconsistent.

Regular Ascorbic Acid testing is important for the food,  beverage, including juice, dairy, wine, and processed foods, as well as in laboratory quality control and research. Accurate measurements help ensure consistent product quality, protect consumer health, and support regulatory compliance.
