The Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) Analysis from Biorex Food Diagnostics provides precise and reliable measurement of HMF, a key indicator of honey freshness, authenticity, and overall quality. HMF naturally forms over time or through heat exposure, improper storage conditions, or adulteration with inverted sugar syrups, making it an essential parameter for evaluating honey integrity.
This analysis enables laboratories and honey producers to verify product freshness, detect potential adulteration, and ensure compliance with international regulations such as the Codex Alimentarius and EU Directive 2001/110/EC. It delivers accurate quantitative results that are highly reproducible, supporting both routine quality control and export certification requirements.
In addition, the HMF Analysis provides valuable insight into honey handling, processing, and storage practices. It can identify heat-treated or aged honey batches, helping safeguard against fraud, mislabelling, and quality degradation throughout the supply chain. Its straightforward and user-friendly protocol allows personnel with minimal technical training to perform testing efficiently and with confidence.
Manufactured to high-quality standards, the HMF Analysis delivers consistent, traceable, and dependable results. It supports laboratories and producers in maintaining strict quality assurance, protecting consumer trust, and meeting regulatory limits for HMF content across both domestic and international markets.
