Abstract | ||||
Ten citrus and clover honeys samples as traditional honeys were collected from new desert regions in Egypt. Eight parameters were measured in clouding moisture, total soluble solid (T.S.S.), PH, Electric conductivity (EC), Free acidity, Lactone, Total acidity and hydroxy methyl furfural (HMF) The results indicated that moisture was parallel and the average values in citrus and clover honeys were 20.33 and 19.25%, respectively. The average values of EC, T.S.S., pH, Free acidity, lacton, total acidity and HMF in citrus and clover honey samples were 80 and 77.5, 79.67 and 80.75, 3.92and 3.83, 16.64 and 14.44, 8.85 and 9.7, 25.85and 24.14, 1.96 and 1.32, respectively. | ||||
