Classical and novel approaches to the analysis of honey and detection of adulterants
Honey is an extract of floral and secretions from a variety of bees. Some honey manufactures adulterate pure honey with industrial sugar, chemicals, and water either directly or indirectly. Many methods have been developed to detect honey adulterants including physicochemical analysis, microscopy, c...

Honey is an extract of floral and secretions from a variety of bees. Some honey manufactures adulterate pure honey with industrial sugar, chemicals, and water either directly or indirectly. Many methods have been developed to detect honey adulterants including physicochemical analysis, microscopy, chromatography, immunoassay, thixotropicity, DNA metabarcoding, sensors, and spectroscopy.
