Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze honey from São Paulo State according to its physical and chemical properties. Determination of free acidity, moisture, hydroxymethylfurfural, Lund test, diastase test, and Fiehe reaction were performed in 73 samples (32 illegal honey, without sanitary inspection, and 41 legal honey, with sanitary inspection). An ANOVA test was applied to evaluate differences in the samples. Three samples had humidity greater than 20%, and one sample had a positive profile in the qualitative analysis of HMF (Fiehe) and quantitative analysis above 60 mg/kg. A total of 21 (65%) illegal honeys had at least one parameter outside the legislation. The irregularities presented were in the acidity, followed by the increase of HMF, negative Lund, high acidity, and high moisture. Significant differences were observed when comparing illegal and legal honey for acidity and hydroxymethylfurfural analysis (p < 0.05). The Fiehe test was positive in 2.44% of legal honeys and 64.52% of illegal honeys. No legal honey was negative for the Lund test, and 22.58% of illegal honeys had a negative profile. The results showed that illegal honey is not suitable for consumption, being outside the standard of identity and quality determined by the Codex Alimentarius Commission and the legislation.

在圣保罗州非法销售的未经卫生检验的蜂蜜中欺诈行为频发

这项研究旨在根据物理和化学特性分析圣保罗州的蜂蜜。对 73 个样品（32 个未经卫生检验的非法蜂蜜和 41 个经卫生检验的合法蜂蜜）进行了游离酸度、水分、羟甲基糠醛、Lund 试验、diastase 试验和 Fiehe 反应测定。采用方差分析来评估样品之间的差异。三个样品的湿度大于 20%，一个样品的 HMF（费埃赫）定性分析呈阳性，定量分析超过 60 毫克/千克。共有 21 个（65%）非法蜂蜜样品的至少一个参数超出了法律规定。不符合规定的参数主要是酸度，其次是 HMF 增加、负伦德、高酸度和高水分。比较非法和合法蜂蜜的酸度和羟甲基糠醛分析结果，发现两者存在显著差异（p < 0.05）。有 2.44% 的合法蜂蜜和 64.52% 的非法蜂蜜在费厄（Fiehe）测试中呈阳性。没有一种合法蜂蜜在伦德测试中呈阴性，22.58%的非法蜂蜜呈阴性。结果表明，非法蜂蜜不适合食用，不符合食品法典委员会和法律规定的身份和质量标准。
