Abstract

1. Ascorbic acid in neera was estimated by titration against 2:6 dichlorophenol indophenol. The samples showed a marked variation in ascorbic acid content. 2. The loss of ascorbic acid in neera was very small on storage at 37° C. for 72 hours. 3. A high concentration of sulfhydryl compounds was observed in neera. 4. Presence of dehydro-ascorbic acid reductase has been shown in neera. 5. The stability of ascorbic acid in neera has been attributed to the presence of (i) sulphahydryl compounds and (ii) dehydro-ascorbic acid reductase.
