Abstract

Thirty-nine samples of honey produced in Goiânia-GO and vicinities were analysed in relation to solid solubles, moisture, acidity in formic acid reducing sugars on glucose. The search for falsification was based on LUND’s reaction, the FIEHE test, Lugol test and the determination of the diastasics ferments. Only 30.77% of the samples analyzed were within the established by the legislation.
