Abstract
The present study deals with the enzyme activity of honey samples harvested from three different locations in the Kannad region of Aurangabad district (M. S.), India. Diastase and invertase activity was analyzed by using Schade et al., (1958) and Siegenthaler (1977) method respectively. Results clearly indicate that the honey harvested from agricultural and forest areas show the highest enzyme activity than the roadside area. The values of enzymes in honey were varied from location to location. This study also clearly demonstrates thin viat honey harvested from the Kannad region was fresh and unheated because the honey samples have more enzyme activity. The values of diastase and invertase were within the quality regulation limits proposed by Codex standards.
