The effect of heat treatment on apple polyphenols was investigated at six different temperatures over three different lengths of time. Apple polyphenols, after heat treatment, maintained similar concentrations in solution compared to the control (at room temperature). The effect of pH on apple polyphenols was investigated at 11 different pH levels and at 2 different temperatures. The pH-optimum for apple polyphenols proved to be 5.0. Two apple polyphenol concentrations, three vitamin C concentrations, two sugar concentrations, and two different temperatures were chosen to investigate the effect of apple polyphenols on vitamin C. Apple polyphenols showed good stability and can be used in many types of food products.
