Differentiation of high-fructose corn syrup adulterated kelulut honey using physicochemical, rheological, and antibacterial parameters

Differentiation of high-fructose corn syrup adulterated kelulut honey using physicochemical, rheological, and antibacterial parameters. Foods, 12 (8). pp. 1-10. ISSN 2304-8158 (2023)



Abstract

Kelulut (stingless bee) honey (KH) possesses a wide range of benefits for human consumption and can exhibit medical effects. Due to its high value, this premium honey is often adulterated with different types of cheaper sugars, causing low nutrients and potential food safety threats in the final product. This study aims to determine the physicochemical, rheological, and antibacterial properties of sugar-based adulterated KH from the stingless bee species Heterotrigona itama.
