Abstract
The goal of this search is to determine the concentration of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid ) in some of a Commercial Products, Vegetables and Fruit Juices by Redox Titration. A redox titration, involving an Iodometric method, has been used to do the analysis. The samples classified by their Vitamin C content.

الهدف من البحث لتحديد تركيز فيتامينC (حامض الاسكوربيك)في عدد من المنتجات التجارية والخضروات وعصائر الفواكه بواسطة التسحيح الاختزالي.التسحيح الاختزالي يتضمن طريقة اليودو ميتريا باستخدام التحليل.النماذج مصنفة حسب احتوائها لفيتامينC.
Introduction
Vitamins are a group of small molecular compounds that are essential nutrients in many multi-cellular organisms, and humans in particular. L-Ascorbic acid was first isolated as a pure substance by Albert Azent-Gyorgi and Charles Kingin 1928 [Paulling ,1970] , an anti-oxidant and free radical scavenger, is found ubiquitously in fruit and vegetables such as citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, limes, tangerines etc.), melons, tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, green leafy vegetables such as spinach, potatoes and turnips, its quantitative determination is especially important in the production of wine, beer, milk, soft drinks and fruit juices, where it can be a quality indicator [Gerrior & Zizza,1994] .Given the essential role played in the human diet and necessary to growth and repair of tissues in all parts of human body .It is necessary to form collagen an important skin proteins ,scar tissue ,tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels. vitamin C is essential for the healing of wounds, and for the repair and maintenance of cartilage, bones and teeth [Mcevoy ,1993] . Since vitamin C is easily
