Abstract:
This study summarized the physicochemical analysis of 609 honey samples originating from the Republic of Serbia. Variations among honey samples from different botanical origins, regions of collections, and harvest years were exposed to descriptive statistics and correlation analysis that differentiated honey samples. Furthermore, most of the observed physicochemical parameters (glucose, fructose, sucrose content, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) levels, acidity, and electrical conductivity) varied significantly among different types of honey, years, and regions. At the same time, no noticeable difference was found in diastase activity, moisture content, and insoluble matter. Based on the obtained results, 22 honey samples could be considered adulterated, due to the irregular content of sucrose, 5-HMF, acidity, and diastase activity. In addition, 64 honey samples were suspected to be adulterated. Adulterated and non-compliant samples present a relatively low percentage (14.1%) of the total number of investigated samples. Consequently, a considerable number of honey samples met the required standards for honey quality. Overall, these findings provide insights into compositional and quality differences among various types of honey, aiding in understanding their characteristics and potential applications.
摘要:
这项研究总结了来自塞尔维亚共和国的609个蜂蜜样品的理化分析。不同植物来源的蜂蜜样品之间的差异,收藏区域,和收获年份进行描述性统计和相关性分析,以区分蜂蜜样品。此外,大多数观察到的物理化学参数(葡萄糖,果糖,蔗糖含量,5-羟甲基糠醛(5-HMF)水平,酸度,和电导率)在不同类型的蜂蜜中差异显著,年,和地区。同时,在淀粉酶活性方面没有发现明显的差异,水分含量,不溶性物质。根据获得的结果,22个蜂蜜样本可以被认为是掺假的,由于蔗糖的含量不规则,5-HMF,酸度,和淀粉酶活性。此外,怀疑有64份蜂蜜样品掺假。掺假和非依从样品占研究样品总数的百分比相对较低(14.1%)。因此,相当数量的蜂蜜样品符合蜂蜜质量标准。总的来说,这些发现提供了对不同类型蜂蜜的组成和质量差异的见解,帮助了解它们的特点和潜在的应用。
