1. IntroductionAscorbic acid (AsA) is a natural water-soluble vitamin (Vitamin C) that is involved in the prevention of humans from various oxidative stress-related diseases [1,2,3,4]. Humans cannot synthesize AsA because the L-gulono-1,4-lactone oxidase is non-functional in the AsA biosynthesis pathway [5]. Plant foods are the main source of AsA for humans in their diet because humans cannot synthesize AsA [6,7,8].
