Use of elemental profiles to verify geographical origin and botanical variety of Spanish honeys with a protected denomination of origin

Michele Ghidotti et al.

Summary: The study classified 183 PDO honeys from three regions in Spain using ED-XRF elemental profiles and successfully differentiated honey without PDO from El Bierzo. Manganese content served as a discriminant marker between Liebana PDO and El Bierzo, which could also be distinguished from each other. The developed models displayed unique elemental profiles among different regions and varieties.

Geographical origin and botanical type honey authentication through elemental metabolomics via chemometrics

Spiros A. Drivelos et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the rare earth and trace element content of 93 honeys of different botanical types and origins using ICP-MS. Discriminant Analysis was successful in classifying both botanical type and geographical origin, while Cluster Analysis only worked for botanical type. Probabilistic Neural Network analysis correctly classified 85.3% of samples based on geographical origin and 73.3% based on organic characterization. A Partial Least Squares model was constructed with a prediction accuracy of over 95%, using information from rare earths and trace elements for classification of honey samples.

Elemental profiling by ICP-MS as a tool for geographical discrimination: The case of bracatinga honeydew honey

Bibiana Silva et al.

Summary: Geographic origin discrimination of bracatinga honeydew honey samples from three regions in Brazil was successfully achieved through the analysis of multielements concentrations, where Rb and Co concentrations were found to be the most influential factors in classifying the honey samples according to their geographic origin.

Physicochemical characterization of honeys from Brazilian monitored beehives

Patricia Brugnerotto et al.

Summary: This study evaluated floral honeys from a beekeeping project in Brazil and classified samples from six regions based on various parameters. Results showed discrepancies in some samples with current regulations, and mineral components were found to be crucial in discriminating honeys. The study indicates that short-term storage conditions may affect honey quality, and highlights the importance of mineral content in honey discrimination.

Volatile Profile of Portuguese Monofloral Honeys: Significance in Botanical Origin Determination

Alexandra M. Machado et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the volatile profiles of 51 samples from 12 different monofloral-labelled Portuguese honey types using two extraction methods. Hydrodistillation was found to be more effective in extracting volatiles. The honey volatiles were grouped into two main clusters and further divided into nine sub-clusters.
