Summary Pollen and tracheophyte spores are ubiquitous environmental indicators at local and global scales. Palynology is typically performed manually by microscopic analysis; a specialised and time‐consuming task limited in taxonomical precision and sampling frequency, therefore restricting data quality used to inform climate change and pollen ...

Melissopalynological Characterization of North Algerian Honeys [PDF]
A pollen analysis of Algerian honey was conducted on a total of 10 honey samples. The samples were prepared using the methodology described by Louveaux et al., that was then further adapted by Ohe et al. The samples were subsequently observed using light microscopy. A total of 36 pollen taxa were discovered and could be identified in the analyzed honey

Abstract Sporomorphs (pollen and spores) are a mainstay of research into past vegetation, and increasingly sporomorph chemistry is being used as a palaeoecological tool. To make extant sporomorphs directly comparable to fossil specimens, fresh material is processed to remove labile compounds and isolate the sporopollenin wall.

Volatile compounds in off-odor honey [PDF]
: Climatic conditions in the mid-northern region of Mato Grosso State in Brazil are favorable for beekeeping. However, since 2011, the honey production chain has suffered losses because the production of off-odor honey has made it impossible to market ...

Honey is one of the important food commodities due to its nutritional and medicinal values. However, the issue of its quality and authenticity remain as important factors in consumption and marketing. This study was aimed at determining the botanical sources and quality parameters of honey samples collected from different areas of Ethiopia.

Semi‐Quantitative Discrimination of Honey Adulterated with Cane Sugar Solution by an ETongue
Abstract This study successfully applied a potentiometric E‐tongue with 20 cross‐selectivity lipidic polymeric membranes in the discrimination of three semi‐quantitative groups, that represented the following intervals of honey adulteration percentage with cane sugar: 0 %; [0, 10]%; [10, 20]% of adulteration.

Pollen DNA metabarcoding identifies regional provenance and high plant diversity in Australian honey
We used pollen DNA metabarcoding to identify the botanical content of 15 honey samples from six Australian biogeographical regions. We sequenced ITS2 and trnL P6 loop, which in combination identified 55 plant families, 67 genera, and 43 species. The trnL marker was able to differentiate between eastern and western Australian honeys and cluster samples ...
