Organic acids in local fruits

In fruits many organic acids are formed during the course of metabolic process. The principal acids which contribute to the acidity are the citric, malic, tartaric and oxalic. They impart to the taste, preservation of fruit and play a role from the physiological point of view. In some traditional pr...
