Applications J. CHRISTOPHER BAUERNFEIND Gainesville, FL 32605

Ascorbic acid, as well as its salts and esters, has many useful applications. In plants L-ascorbic acid has been reported to promote germination of seeds, growth of plants, and growth of roots on cuttings. Spraying of plants such as lettuce, celery, spinach, petunias, and roses with ascorbic acid or sodium ascorbate solutions enabled those plants to better withstand damage from ozone and smog exposure. Spraying tree or bush fruits with ascorbic acid solution syn­ chronizes maturation and causes fruit to fall more easily in mechanical harvesting. In some instances ascorbic acid application has been cited to improve the defense mechnism of plants to attack by disease agents. Fish require a dietary source of vitamin C, without which they grow poorly and develop fracture dislocations of the spine, distortions of cartilage, and other deficiency signs. In some instances, ruminants and monogastric animals appear to benefit from administration of L-ascorbic acid under stress. Animals with viral disease, such as canine or feline distemper, have responded to treatment with high levels of ascorbic acid. Solid and liquid forms constitute a substan­ tial pharmaceutical market for manufactured ascorbic acid. Tableting techniques have been devised to prepare a wide array of swallowable or chewable tablets with an assured vitamin C content after manufacture and prolonged storage. L-Ascorbic acid may be added to foods or food ingredients as a nutrient to fortify natural or fabricated foods having little or no vitamin C, to restore losses, and to standardize a given class of food products with a preselected quantity of 0065-2393/82/0200-0395$26.75/0 © 1982 American Chemical Society In Ascorbic Acid: Chemistry, Metabolism, and Uses; Seib, P., et al.; Advances in Chemistry; American Chemical Society: Washington, DC, 1982.

Examples

enging oxygen in beer, fruit, or vegetable products, inhibiting oxidative rancidity in frozen fish, stabilizing the color and flavor in cured meats, maturing of wheat flour and improving of dough, and acting as a reducing agent in wine. An extensive list of patents and scientific papers exists on proposed industrial uses of ascorbic

and in metal technology.
