Abstract

ABSTRACTA comparison between changes in hydroxymethylfurfural, pH, total acidity and free acids content in Helianthus annuus and Eucalyptus lanceolatus honey heated under different conditions during storage was made. Storage duration showed the most pronounced effect on hydroxymethylfurfural content followed by temperature and heating duration for both types of honey. Total acidity and free acids content was higher in Helianthus annuus honey than in Eucalyptus lanceolatus honey. Total acidity and free acids content increased and pH decreased in both the honey types during heating and storage. However, storage duration showed the most pronounced effect on these parameters.
