Abstract
The effect of acid rain and of long-term storage on the concentration of carboxylic acids in apple has been studied. The carboxylic acids ha ve been separated by means of high performance ionic chromatography. M alic, citric, succinic and fumaric acids have been determined. In the case of long-term storage the malic acid content was decreased of abou t 25%.
