Salicylic Acid in Grapes

Abstract
A highly sensitive and specific spectrofluorimetric technique was used to determine the salicylic acid concentration in two varieties of grapes. The juice after crushing contained 0.04 mg/kg salicylic acid while the press residue after crushing, heating and pressing contained 0.07 mg/kg and after crushing, fermenting and pressing 0.08 mg/kg salicylic acid. Heating the crushed grapes did not increase the salicylic acid content of the press residue.
