Abstract:
The article presents the study results of the physicochemical properties of acacia honey. It was found that honey obtained from the different soil and climatic zones had a mass fraction of water from 15.1 up to 19.0%, a mass fraction of invert sugar: 72.8-81.0%, levels of sucrose: 1.0-3.50%, the diastatic number: 5.8-13.8 Gothe units, the content of hydroxymethylfurfural: 4,99-14,40 mg/kg, the total acidity of 0,75-1,60 mEq per 100 g and cadmium level: ≤ 0,005 mg/kg.
