Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient for humans , a large number of higher primate species, a small number of other mammalian species (notably guinea pigs and bats ), a few species of birds, and some fish. [ 1 ]
The presence of ascorbate is required for a range of essential metabolic reactions in all animals and plants. It is made internally by almost all organisms, humans being a notable exception. It is widely known that a deficiency in this vitamin causes scurvy in humans. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It is also widely used as a food additive .
