  Characterization of Pollen-Quantitative, Bromatological and Physicochemical of Honeys Commercialized in Nuevo Leon, Mexico
  Author(s): Marco A Alvarado Vázquez*, Alejandra Rocha Estrada, Denisse M Rosales Carrillo and Marco A Guzman Lucio
  
  Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by bees from plant nectar or secretions from live plant parts or from plant-sucking insect excretions. Bees collect, transform and combine these with their own specific substances and deposit, dehydrate, store and leave them on the hive to mature and age. Mexico is the fourth largest honey producer in the world. Eight honey samples were studied considering aspects palynological, bromatological and physicochemical. Regarding pollen richness, these honeys belong to Class II and III, which correspond to pollen-rich honeys. Regarding moisture, values from 10.55% for S1 honey to 18.14% for LC were found. For ash, LC honey had a lower percentage (0.07%) while EM honey had a greater percentage (0.42%). A maximum protein value of 0.63% was found, corresponding to EC honey. All the honeys analyzed were within the reference values (89.29% for honey S2.. View more»
