Summary: | The quality of honey from Pervari region was almost known by all over the country in Turkey. This study was
undertaken to determine (i) physico-chemical parameters, (ii) antimicrobial analysis and (iii) pollen estimation method with
expert computer system obtained from three different sites of Pervari region (Siirt/Turkey). For physico-chemical
parameters; moisture, free acidity, diastase activity, hydroxyl methyl furfural (HMF), invert sugar, ash, commercial glucose
and proline analysis were examined. For anti-microbial analysis disc dilution method were studied on six different bacteria
species. For pollen analysis; different and new expert computer system was used for comparison of pollen of plants and
honey samples. The aim of the study was to evaluate the properties of multi floral honey determined from three different
locations in the same region and the way to understand to which plants were visited by the bees with comparing of pollen
grains of flowers and honey by using the expert computer system. Honey samples of Pervari region were of acceptable
quality based on recommended criteria of Turkish Food Codex and International Honey Commission. |
