Pattern of pH and electrical conductivity upon honey dilution as a complementary tool for discriminating geographical origin of honeys
Seven physicochemical parameters (water content, ash, water activity, free, lactone and total acidity, pH and electrical conductivity) were analyzed in 19 nectar honeys of different floral origin and from several regions of Argentina. In addition, the pattern of electrical conductivity and pH upon h...
