“…Therefore, there is a tendency to replace pollen analysis by finding analytical and/or physicochemical markers for honey discrimination. Minerals and trace elements (Fernández-Torres et al, 2005;Hernández, Fraga, Jiménez, Jiménez, & Arias, 2005;Latorre et al, 1999), volatile compounds (Guyot, Scheirman, & Collin, 1999;Radovic et al, 2001;Soria et al, 2004), the protein pattern, flavonoids, physicochemical parameters like electrical conductivity, pH, total acidity and water activity (Acquarone, Buera, & Elizalde, 2007;Corbella & Cozzolino, 2006;Devillers, Morlot, Pham-Delegue, & Dore, 2004;Marini, Magrì, Balestieri, Fabretti, & Marini, 2004) are some of the parameters that have been extensively examined for the recognition of the floral and geographical origin of honeys.…”
