Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the conclusions of iodometry and colorimetry in order to ascertain the stability of the vitamin C present in fresh lemon juice and amla juice. the results of this study, ascorbic acid degrades more quickly at low temperatures than it does at normal temperature. Iodometry and colorimetry results are in close agreement. As a result, we could say that the iodometry method is a cheap and simple way to estimate the amount of ascorbic acid comprised in both liquids. Results of qualitative tests are also reported. The results of TLC, Paper Chromatography, and RF analysis are all almost identical. Results from UV spectroscopy are similarly within range. Thus, stability testing for vitamin C has been validated by all of these tests.
