Following a survey of lemon juice composition, the analytical data are given 2 different statistical treatments. On comparing these treatments, it is found that the specific test based on classical chi-square distribution is more powerful than that based on regression analysis. The analysis of free amino acids provides a method for the detection of adulteration of lemon juice, which is both efficient and difficult to circumvent.
