Physicochemical properties, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity of chestnut, rhododendron, acacia and multifloral honey
The aim of this study is to investigate the physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, and total phenolic contents of the plateau (multifloral), chestnut, rhododendron, and acacia honey collected from Ordu province in Turkey. The rhododendron honey had the highest acidity (p < 0.05) whil...

description | The aim of this study is to investigate the physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, and total phenolic contents of the plateau (multifloral), chestnut, rhododendron, and acacia honey collected from Ordu province in Turkey. The rhododendron honey had the highest acidity (p < 0.05) while the chestnut honey showed the highest conductivity (1.13 ± 0.25 mS/cm) among all (p < 0.05). The highest diastase activities and the lowest HMF contents were determined in the multifloral and chestnut honey. Considering the DPPH and FRAP assays, the multifloral honey showed the highest antioxidant activity. Accordingly, the highest total phenolic content was determined in the multifloral honey followed by rhododendron, chestnut, and acacia honey. A moderate correlation was determined between the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities (r = 0.575 for FRAP and r = 0.697 for DPPH). Consequently, the plateau honey could be recommended for nutritional and health purposes due to its relatively higher antioxidant activity and total phenolic content together with relatively lower HMF content and higher diastase activity. Considering that Ordu is the largest honey producer city in Turkey, the second top honey producer country, this work could shed light for future studies and be taken as a reference providing insights on the characteristics of different types of honey for both local and worldwide producers. |
