Abstract

Research on the analysis of ascorbic acid content in pineapples and melons has been carried out using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method. This study aims to determine the levels of ascorbic acid in pineapple and melon. The samples used in this study were pineapple samples and melon samples. The ascorbic acid concentrations were measured for the two samples. The measurements were carried out using the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method at a wavelength of 265 nm. To determine whether there is a difference in the concentration of ascorbic acid between the pineapple and melon samples. After the research that has been done it turns out that the dilution shows different concentrations that have been obtained. Based on the measurement results using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, it was found that the ascorbic acid concentration contained in the pineapple sample was 163.82 mg/L, while the ascorbic acid concentration contained in the melon sample was 45.35 mg/L. So the result is higher than pineapple fruit compared to melon fruit.
