Vitamin C is a general term for compounds having ascorbic acid activity, including ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, and its isomers.
The understanding of vitamin C has gone through a long and painful process. Although the relationship between scurvy and stored food is obvious, but the treatments of this disease have been misguided. By 1601, British armed Captain James Lancaster discovered the disease on the ship of the East India Company and regarded the scurvy as "rot," which could be made tissue alkaline.
At the early stage of the nineteenth century, the understanding and treatment of scurvy had developed to a right approach. The exposition of scurvy etiology and metabolic theory took more than a century.
By the early stage of the twentieth century, inspired by the animal model of beriberi, researchers in the Christchurch Oslo University discovered one animal that could suffer scurvy accidentally and then established a valuable scurvy animal model. This experiment demonstrated that the extract isolated from lemon had antiscurvy activity. Until 1932, many research groups obtained the anti-scurvy crystal from different plants and identified the crystal as ascorbic acid vitamin C. Next year, the chemical structure of ascorbic acid was elucidated, and then its artificial synthesis was accomplished.
