Acid solutions were prepared to 0.1 M (low) and 0.5 M (high) and pumped to 7% of initial wt. in experiment 1; 0.75 M (low) and 1.5 M (high) and pumped to 10 % of initial wt. in experiment 2. Lactic acid, acetic acid and sodium citrate dihydrate (food grade citric acid) at low and high concentrations gave 6 treatments per experiment. Objective color measurements were taken at …
