Popis: |
A high-performance anion-exchange liquid chromatography method with pulsed amperometric detection was developed to investigate the oligosaccharide composition of honey. Quantification was achieved by reference to a maltotetraose internal standard. The oligosaccharide profiles of 91 authentic UK honey samples were obtained and multivariate statistical techniques employed to investigate whether these profiles could be used as a basis for identification of flower source. Canonical Discriminant Analysis proved most successful. Results indicated that honey oligosaccharide profiles have a potentially valuable role to play in the assessment of floral origin of honey though it is unlikely that this procedure alone will allow unambiguous determination of all floral types. |
