Ready to find the sweet truth of honey?

Honey, a flavorful and nutritious food produced by honeybees, is widely consumed due to its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. However, its relatively high price, limited production, and complex composition make it vulnerable to adulteration, impacting consumers and manufacturers. The most common honey adulteration is by addition of sugar syrups, including rice syrup to pure honey. Additionally, feeding sugar syrups to honeybees to improve yield and profit represents indirect honey adulteration.

Manufacturers and testing labs alike, need to test the product, meeting the strict guidelines and safety limits put in place by various regulatory bodies like FSSAI, E.U. etc. The triple quadrupole LC/MS system is the gold standards in U.S., EU, FSSAI, and other country guidelines for unambiguous confirmation of contaminants and adulterants in honey. The Ultivo LC/TQ, the ultimate evolution of triple quadrupole LC/MS systems has been used in this application whereby the obtained sensitivity exceeds the safety limits established by food regulation authorities.
