Mardari, Tatiana
Bee honey remains one of the most popular domestic animal products exported to the European Union. Honey producers should ensure the safety of the product by providing evidence of its safety through traceability. This research has been carried out to assess the quality and harmlessness of domestic and imported honey based on the organoleptic, physicochemical parameters and toxic metals. The honey samples were analyzed at the Public Institution Republican Center for Veterinary Diagnosis in the Laboratory of Food Products Testing. The results of organoleptic analysis and the values of evaluated indices (mass fraction of water:16,4-17,8%; acidity index: 0,9-3,3 milliequivalents per 100 g of honey; hydroxymethylfurfural content: 4,7-25,8%; sucrose: 1,3-2,0%; toxic elements; lead: < 0,02 mg/kg) revealed that the investigated domestic and imported honey samples meet the established standards and are recommended for human consumption.
