  Erythorbic acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Erythorbic acid, formerly known as isoascorbic acid and D-araboascorbic acid is a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid.
One investigated the effects of erythorbic acid on vitamin C metabolism in young women, no effect on vitamin C uptake or clearance from the body was found.
A later study found that erythorbic acid is a potent enhancer of nonheme-iron absorption.

 Ascorbic acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Another method involves using iodine and a starch indicator, iodine reacts with ascorbic acid and when all the ascorbic acid has reacted the iodine is then in excess, forming a blue/fl complex with the starch indicator.
In this titration the NBS oxidises the ascorbic acid (in the presence of potassium iodide and starch).
Ascorbic acid and its sodium, potassium, and calcium salts are commonly used as antioxidant food additives.

 Erythorbic Acid : by Ray Sahelian, M.D. health benefit C   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The aims of the present study were to evaluate the effect of erythorbic acid on iron absorption from ferrous sulfate at molar ratios of 2:1 and 4:1 (relative to iron) and to compare the effect of erythorbic acid directly with that of ascorbic acid at a molar ratio of 4:1.
At a molar ratio of 4:1, erythorbic acid was 1.6-fold (P = 0.0002) as potent an enhancer of iron absorption as was ascorbic acid.
Erythorbic acid is a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid commonly used as antioxidant in foodstuffs and has the same redox properties as ascorbic acid.

 708. Erythorbic acid and its sodium salt (WHO Food Additives Series 28)
Ascorbic acid is known to increase the bioavailability of iron and the activity of erythorbic acid in this respect was examined in a haem-repletion assay in iron deficient male weanling rats.
Erythorbic acid or ascorbic acid was fed to female Swiss Webster mice in the diet at a concentration of 5% for 2 months and then at 10% of the diet for a further 5 months; a control group received an ascorbic acid-free diet throughout.
Erythorbic acid was fed to groups of 7 male guinea pigs, body weight 220-250g, at daily dose levels of 0, 20, 50, 100 or 400 mg together with ascorbic acid (20 mg/d).

 Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University
A study of 12 males (6 smokers and 6 nonsmokers) found the bioavailability of synthetic ascorbic acid (powder administered in water) to be slightly superior to that of orange juice, based on blood levels of ascorbic acid, and not different based on ascorbic acid in leukocytes (white blood cells) (1).
A study in 68 male nonsmokers found that ascorbic acid consumed as cooked broccoli, orange juice, orange slices, and synthetic ascorbic acid tablets are equally bioavailable, as measured by plasma ascorbic acid levels (2,3).
The ascorbic acid released by the hydrolysis of ascorbyl palmitate appears to be as bioavailable as ascorbic acid alone (10).

 Does erythorbic acid enhance iron absorption? - Vitamins and Minerals Nutrition Research Newsletter - Find Articles
Erythorbic acid (synonyms: isoascorbic acid, D-araboascorbic acid) is a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid that differs from ascorbic acid only in the relative position of the hydrogen and hydroxyl groups on the fifth carbon atom in the molecule.
A recent investigation sought to evaluate whether erythorbic acid influences iron absorption in a dose-dependent manner and to evaluate the effect of erythorbic acid compared with that of ascorbic acid.
Erythorbic acid appears to be a potent enhancer of iron absorption, but its lack of antiscorbutic activity limits its usefulness in iron-fortified foods.

An acid (often represented by the generic formula HA) is traditionally considered any chemical compound that when dissolved in water, gives a solution with a pH of less than 7.
Common examples include acetic acid (in vinegar) and sulfuric acid (used in car batteries).
Nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid are all strong acids, whereas nitrous acid, sulfurous acid and hypochlorous acid are all weak.

 Erythorbic Acid & Sodium Erythorbate - Current Status' and Outlook by 2010   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Erythorbic acid and sodium erythorbate are chemical isomers of ascorbates, they are effective antioxidants for applications that do not require a nutritional claim for vitamin activity.
The efficiency of erythorbates as antioxidants depends upon the particular food system, the compounds to be protected, the amount of metal contamination, and the amount of oxygen to be removed form the system.
Erythorbic acid and sodium erythorbate are permitted food ingredients in the U.S. Japan and European Union.

 Electroplating iron alloys containing nickel, cobalt or nickel and cobalt - Patent 4014759
Erythorbic acid (ascorbic and isoascorbic) and the reaction product of an aldehyde and an aromatic sulfinate act synergistically in reducing and controlling the formation of iron and thus allow a bright, leveled plate to be obtained at the higher pH range.
This invention has probatively shown that erythorbic acid and aldehyde adducts of aromatic sulfinates such as benzene sulfinate and/or toluene sulfinate act together to prevent the oxidation and precipitation of iron ions at a pH of 4.0 to 5.5 and produce a bright plate having a wide current density range.
Ascorbic acid, erythorbic acid, and isoascorbic acid are present in the baths in a sole or combined concentration of from 1 gram per liter to 15 grams per liter.

 Ascorbic Acid : by Ray Sahelian, M.D. health benefit C
Ascorbic Acid is used as an antioxidant and pH adjuster in a large variety of cosmetic formulations, the majority of which are hair dyes and colors at concentrations between 0.3% and 0.6%.
However, because ascorbic acid is endogenously converted to oxalate and appears to increase the absorption of dietary oxalate, supplementation may increase the risk of kidney stones.

 Peak Performance - January 2005
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and its isomer - erythorbic acid - are relatively strong reducing agents which combine quickly with oxygen in liquids.
It is by this mechanism that ascorbic acid facilitates the removal of oxygen from wine by reaction with sulphur dioxide.
In most cases only one of the isomers of ascorbic acid is added to wine as an antioxidant so accurate quantification and identification is the norm as shown in Figure 3.
