Vinegar is a liquid that may be consumed by humans and is made by fermenting starch and sugar. It is very important since it can be used to marinade meats, pickle vegetables, and other foods, as well as strengthen our immune system. Vinegar is typically made by an alcoholic fermentation process in which yeasts transform the simple sugars in the raw material into alcohol. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) JSM 6490) is a very useful instrument to visualize morphological structure of the food. Apple Pulp was analyzed by using high resolution SEM. Fig.2 shows the results of Apple Pulp at X1000; it clearly shows a very smooth surface. When observed on X2000 magnification it depicts the uneven geometry of particles which due to the amorphous nature of the sample. The vinegar produced from different locally grown fruits and industrial produced vinegar was evaluated to determine their proximate and elemental composition. The proximate parameters analysed includes moisture content, total solids, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre, carbohydrates and ash content. The Moisture content of Apple Pulp is 67%, Crude Protein 0.03gm, Crude Fat 0.02gm, Crude Fibre 2.8gm, Ash content 0.11% and Carbohydrate 13.8gm.
