FAPAS Proficiency Test of Quality

SKU: FP-QLT

Honey

The honey proficiency tests are intended to meet the requirements detailed in the EU Honey Directive, for honey intended for human consumption. The analytes listed below are important determinands in evaluating the quality of honey (but not necessarily related to its authenticity). Some analytes may have artificially elevated levels. Levels of diastase will be dependent on the source of the honey used for the test material. HMF may be determined by either spectrophotometric methods or HPLC (there is no observable method dependency). There are other proficiency tests in the Programme with honey as the matrix, see under the sections headed Veterinary Drug Residues, and Pesticide Residues – Fresh Fruits, Vegetables, Tea, Herbs & Honey.
