The present selection of methods has been made to include all the methods that at the current state of knowledge are sufficient for the determination of honey quality. It includes some old methods, which are still widely used in routine analysis, as well as some more modern ones. All the methods compiled in this publication have been published previously and with one exception (specific rotation) have been subjected to collaborative study. Most of them have also been through the standardization procedure of the German Institute for Norms (DIN). Content: determination of moisture, refractometric method; determination of electrical conductivity; determination of ash content; pH and free acidity; hydroxymethylfurfural; diatase; sugars; determination of insoluble matter, of invertase activity, of proline, of specific rotation
