Botanic Origin and Antioxidant Activity of Some Bitlis Honeys
Abstract
Honey is one of the most known beeproduct in worldwide. The aim of this study is to interpret botanic origin, and antioxidant activity of five honey samples from Bitlis region. All the samples were classified as multifloral. The total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity (HPSA), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH), ferrous ions chelating activity (FICA), ABTS radical cation scavenging activity (ABTS) of honey samples were found between, 165.73-349.41 mg GAE/100 g, 1.26-4.08 mg CAE/100, 201.76-216.59 µg/mL, 52.46-71.2%, 256.41-419.29 µg/mL, 69.44-94%, and 20.06-20.59 µg/mL, respectively. These results were compared with Trolox (TRO), Routine (RUT) and Butylated Hydroxy Anisole (BHA) standard antioxidant components. The reported information gives increased nutrition characteristics to honey and support to the growing of beekeeping, supplying a choice to family income raise.
