Vitamin C is a nutrient that acts as an antioxidant and is effective in overcoming free radicals that can damage cells or tissues, including protecting the lens from oxidative damage caused by radiation. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is one of the vitamins that is soluble in water, easily oxidized, and sensitive to light stimulation. One of the plants that contain vitamin C is curly red chili. Red chilies have different levels of spiciness. Determination of vitamin C levels in red chili was carried out by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. This study aims: to determine the levels of vitamin C contained in the flesh of curly red chili (Capsicum annum L.) circulating in the Berastagi fruit market, Karo Regency. Methods: The sample used was curly red chili meat obtained from Berastagi fruit market, Karo Regency. The test was carried out by UV-Vis spectrophotometry with a wavelength of 296 nm.
