The aim of the current study was the comparative analysis of the physical, biochemical and antioxidant properties of Mustard, Litchi, and Nigella honey. The physical parameters include the mean moisture content of Mustard, Litchi and Nigella honey were found 14.32%, 15.27%, and 14.12% respectively; P H content were 6.97, 5.8, 4.78; the TSS content were71%, 70%, and 73% respectively. The biochemical parameters including protein content were 1.103%, 0.57% and 0.985%; mean ash content were 0.2%, 0.19%, and0.188%, total carbohydrate content were 84.377%, 83.97% and 84.496% and the minerals contents Na were 539.238 ppm, 424.3565 ppm and 588 ppm; K were 239.216 ppm, 219.017 ppm and1063.774 ppm; Ca were 1710.499 ppm, 611.4852 ppm and 75.4 ppm for the Mustard, Litchi and Nigella honey respectively. The Antioxidant properties such as polyphenol content were found 42.572 ± 0.00529 mg gallic acid /50 ml, 30.625 ± 0.00529 mg gallic acid /50 ml and 95.5 ± 0.00529 mg gallic acid /50 ml; flavonoid content were found 1.052 ± 0.000577 mg catechin /50 ml, 0.6 ± 0.000577 mg catechin /50 ml and 2.66 ± 0.000577 mg catechin /50 ml and vitamin C content were 0.41 mg/100ml, 0.63 mg/100ml and 0.7 mg/100ml for Mustard, Litchi and Nigella honey respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
