3. RAPID DETECTION OF VITAMIN C CONTENT IN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES USING A DIGITAL CAMERA AND COLOR REACTION
In this study, we propose a novel method to determine the vitamin C content in fruits and vegetables. The proposed method exploits the image and data processing abilities of computers by coupling a digital camera and a color reaction. An image acquisition device was developed to collect the image information of the solution to be measured after the color rea

7. Comparative analysis of citrus fruits for nutraceutical properties
Abstract Fruits and vegetables (F and V) are valuable for their micronutrients, but many F and V in diverse growth areas have not been scientifically validated for these components. The nutraceutical characteristics of the pulp of eight citrus fruits grown in Pakistan were, therefore, investigated. Expectedly, the fruits differed in moisture (86.9-88.9%), as
