16 Comparison of Physicochemical Characteristics of Honey Produced by Apis florea And Apis dorsata honey bee species from Punjab, Pakistan
17 Honey is the most important primary product of beekeeping both from a quantitative and an economic point of view. It was also the first bee product used by mankind in ancient times. Honey is a complex mixture and presents very great variations in composition and characteristics due to its geographical and botanical origin. Quality of honey is mostly evaluated by its physico-chemical analysis of its constituents several important components influence the storage quality, granulation, texture, flavor, nutritional and medicinal value of the honey
18 OBJECTIVES To find Apis florea and Apis dorsata colonies on different floral sources and collect honey. To evaluate the physicochemical properties of Apis florea and Apis dorsata honey from Pakistan. To increase the scientific knowledge about Apis florea and Apis dorsata honey collected from Punjab region of Pakistan.
19 MATERIALS AND METHODS
20 Sample Collection A.dorsata samples were collected from Bhakkar district A.florae samples were collected from Bhakkar, Kallar Kahar and Shorkot districts of Punjab province of Pakistan Physico-chemical analysis (Bogdanov et al., 1999) ph and Electrical Conductivity were determined in a 10g/75ml solution of honey in deionized water. Free, lactonic and total acidities were titrated in the same solution used for ph measurement (AOAC, 1975). Water content refractive index and correlation with Chataway Charts (Chataway, 1935). Proline content of honey according to Cough (1969). Winkler s method for HMF content (Winkler, 1955). The diastase activity of honey samples according to the procedure of Schade et al. (1958). ANOVA (Steel and Torri, 1981) was performed for statistical analysis of data.
