Colour and content of some metals in honey


Authors: Jan Šubert;  Jozef Kolář;  Jozef Čižmárik

Overview

The paper highlights the correlations between the results of instrumental colour measurement and the content of certain metals in kinds of honey. Sufficiently close correlations may lead to the development of procedures for the rapid determination of the content of these metals in honey by colour measurement without the need for more demanding sample preparation.

Keywords:

Metals – Honey – correlation – colour
