Abstract:

The determination of titratable acidity in apple, grape, strawberry was conducted by monotonic titration (MET) using automatic potentiometric titrator. The recovery and relative standard deviation (RSD) of the method are 92.85% to 96.65% and 0.64% to 1.84% respectively. The determination result is not affected by the color of sample, and the accuracy and precision are high. This method can be used in the determination of fruit quality.

Key words: automatic potentiometric titration, titratable acidity, recovery
