COMPARISION OF THE ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY AND HYDROXYMETHYLFURFURAL (HMF) LEVELS IN HONEY TAKEN FROM HIVES AND MARKETS
Abstract
In this study, the antioxidant activity and HMF levels of 20 honey samples directly taken from hives and 20 of those offered for sale in the stores in the province of Aydın, which were total of 40 honey samples. The antioxidant activity in the honey samples directly taken from hives was found as 16.54±1.52, HMF content was found as 26.94±2.07 mg/kg. The antioxidant activity was found as 22.04±0.59, HMF content was found as 56.70±3.83 mg/kg. The difference between the antioxidant activity (P <0.01) and the HMF values (P <0.001) of the honey samples was found statistically significant. The HMF level in the honey collected from the hives were found to comply with the specifications set by the Turkish Food Codex Communique on Honey, whereas the HMF level of the market honey was higher than the level specified in the communiqué.
