“…En el estudio de los factores que determinan las propiedades fisicoquímicas de la miel de abeja, contrario a lo que dice Barrera y Llanos (2023), la miel es elaborada a partir del néctar de las flores de las plantas y varias especies de género Apis, así como de otras especies como las abejas sin aguijón, tienen la capacidad de almacenarla en sus nidos como material de reserva. En algunos casos dependiendo de la fuente floral, es posible encontrar restos de polen disueltos en su contenido, lo cual permite la determinación de su origen botánico; en tal sentido es importante la realización de investigaciones en torno a este producto, tal como lo indica Pineda, et al (2019), la calidad de la miel es uno de los aspectos que menos se han investigado teniéndose poca información de su procedencia de acuerdo a su composición polínica la cual obedece a las plantas de donde ellas obtienen el polen.…”

El conocimiento de las especies florísticas, arbóreas y arbustivas que son visitadas por las abejas representa un impacto significativo para los apicultores de la región Sur Oriente de Guatemala, específicamente, San Manuel Chaparrón y Mataquescuintla del departamento de Jalapa, y Nueva Santa Rosa, del departamento de Santa Rosa; los resultados obtenidos en la investigación permiten establecer las zonas adecuadas por su potencial florístico aprovechable para la producción apícola, basados en las características de disponibilidad y abundancia, así como de la etología de la abeja la cual permite establecer las plantas de mayor preferencia para estas por su aporte polínico, así mismo se logra determinar en laboratorio la estructura morfométrica de los granos de polen de las diferentes especies de plantas analizadas, dando como resultados su descripción botánica y morfología de polen, beneficiando así con este conocimiento a la población de apicultores a través de la generación de un catálogo referencial que les permitirá determinar la procedencia de las mieles que producen en sus apiarios de acuerdo al contenido polínico de estas, además aportará conocimiento de todas las especies que se pueden conservar y aprovecharlas de manera sostenible mitigando el deterioro de sus ecosistemas. Palabras clave: apícola, abeja, especies florísticas, etología, polen.

“…Meanwhile, ash content in honey can be an indicator of environmental pollution [50] as well as a quality criterion to evaluate the botanical origin of the honey. The mean ash content obtained in the present study was low (0.25 ± 0.1%)-with no major variations between areas-and complies with the Chilean regulations in all the territories analyzed.…”

The chemical composition and quality of honey depend on the floral and geographical origin, extraction techniques, and storage, resulting in a unique product for each area. Currently, consumers are not only concerned about the chemical composition, quality, and food safety of honey, but also about its origin. The objective of this study was to characterize honeys produced in Chile’s central-southern region from a mineral and botanical perspective, thus adding value through differentiation by origin. Two hundred honey samples were used and underwent analysis such as melissopalynological composition, nutritional composition, and color. Forty-seven melliferous floral species were identified, out of which 24 correspond to exotic species and 23 to native species. Fifty-six percent were classified as monofloral honeys, 2% as bifloral, and 42% as multifloral. Moisture mean values (17.88%), diastase activity (15.53 DN), hydroxymethylfurfural (2.58 mg/kg), protein (0.35%), and ash (0.25%) comply with the ranges established by both the national and the international legislation; standing out as honeys of great nutritional value, fresh, harvested under optimal maturity conditions, and absence fermentation. Regarding color, light amber was prevalent in most territories. The territory where honey was produced, denoted relevant differences in all the parameters studied.

“…Tools like principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and stepwise discriminant analysis (SDA) are employed for its categorization. These tools assess data trends and uncover the links between the physicochemical attributes and honey's botanical source [4] Recently, methods to analyze honey's volatile components have emerged, aiding in the detection of chemical markers within honeys, facilitating the distinct identification of monofloral varieties. Among these methodologies, one of the most promising is the analysis of the volatile fraction of honeys by means of SPME-GC-MS (Solid Phase Microextraction-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry), since the compounds in this fraction are closely related to the organoleptic perception that the consumer receives from them.…”

In this article a case study of characterisation of type of honey based on floral origin is presented. It is intended to discriminate Iberian honeys from local beekeepers located in the Community of Madrid (Spain), by means of a low-cost electronic nose prototype, composed of a matrix of nonspecific resistive sensors of MQ-type metal oxides. The measurements of the honeys made with an electronic nose prototype were contrasted with physicochemical analyzes and pollen content. The experiment was carried out in two trials. A first preliminary study in which six samples of honey from different sources were used (three Blueweed, one rapeseed, one lavender and one commercial honey) and in which eight repetitions were made for each of the six samples analyzed. Due to the small sample size, conclusive results were not obtained, although the sensors did show a clear response in those that presented a higher pollen content, above 57%, however, the honey samples that reflected pollen values lower than 50% they showed no perceptible reaction on the sensors. In the second study, in which the sample size was increased to a total of 16 samples (four lavender honeys, four oak honeys, four rosemary honeys, and four chestnut honeys), a total of 10 repetitions per sample were carried out with a total of repetitions out of 160. These last data were analyzed with the principal component technique (PCA), the results of which were inconclusive. However, when applying the data analysis through the use of Support Vector Machines (SVM), it is possible to obtain a model with 87.5% accuracy in the classification. In this case, the Lavender and Chestnut honeys were the ones that achieved a precision of 90% and 100% respectively.
