| description |
Vitamins are important in human diet because they will give sufficient amount of
nutrient that needed by human body. Humans cannot synthesize the ascorbic acid,
but this vitamin is commonly found in the varieties of vegetables and fruits. Hence,
these vegetables and fruits become their main sources of ascorbic acid to meet
requirement of dietary intake. The contents of ascorbic acid in the natural and
commercial fruit juices must be analyzed. The differential pulse anodic stripping
voltammetry (DPASV) technique using glassy carbon electrode (GeE) as a working
electrode and phosphate buffer at pH 4.2 as a supporting electrolyte has been
proposed to be developed. The experimental voltammetric parameters were
optimized in order to obtain a maximum response with analytical validation of the
technique. The optimum instrumental conditions for electroanalytical determination
of ascorbic acid in phosphate buffer solution at pH 4.2 by the proposed DPASV
technique were initial parameter Ej = 0 V, end parameter Ef = 0.7 V, accumulation
time tacc = 60 s, scan rate v = 0.125 Vis, accumulation potential Eacc = 0 V and pulse
amplitude = 0.150 V. The anodic peak was appeared at 0.3598 V. The curve was
linear from 0.028 to 1.703 mM (R2=0.999) with detection limit of 0.0114 mM. The
precisions in terms of relative standard deviation (RSD) were 1.3%,0.5% and 0.06%,
respectively on the same day precision. The recoveries for the spiked 0.0852 mM (in
commercial fruit juice samples) and 0.039 mM (in natural fruit juice samples)
concentration of the ascorbic acid standard were 101.93 ± 1.65 % for pineapple
sample by squeezing method while in commercial fruits sample; blackcurrent was
80.00 ± 6.25 %, orange was 73.65 ± 1.70 % and mango sample was 97.48 ± 16.90 %.
The concentration of ascorbic acid in the commercial fruit juice samples;
blackcurrent was 2.0213 mM, orange was 1.8286 mM and mango was 2.9798 mM.
Meanwhile, there was no content of ascorbic acid detected for the lychee and guava
commercial juice sample. For the natural fruit juice samples, the content of ascorbic
acid in the orange was 0.800 mM and pineapple was 0.698 mM. It can be concluded
that the developed technique is precise, accurate, rugged, low cost, fast and has
potential to be an alternative method for routine analysis of ascorbic acid in the
natural and commercial fruit juices. |
