Potassium sulphocyanide solution Scanned with CamScanner Persaturated Nd for subsist Bee honey is Composed of fructose, Blucose, and water, in varyi proportions. It also contains several enzymes and oils, The Sic flavour depend on the age of the honey and the source of the nectar. Its coloured honey is usually of higher Quality than dark-coloured honey. Other high-grade kinds of honey are made by bees from orange Blossom, Clover, and Alfalfa, Well-known Poorer grade honey is produced from buckwheat, : Sugar i pees to feed their larvae a 8ar solution manuf. factured by ence during winter. Honey has a fuel value of about 3307 cal/kg [1520 cal/ Ibs}. tt readily picks up moisture from the air and is consequently used as a din baking. Glucose crystallizes out of ature, leaving an uncrystallized layer of MARKETED is usually heated by a 50.01 F] to dissolve the Crystals and is in. The fructose in crystallized honey honey standing at room temper: dissolved fructose, Honey to be special process to about 66C ul sealed to prevent crystallizatior ferments readily at about 16C. Scanned with CamScanner Procedure Test for minerals- 4. Test for Potassium:- 2ml of honey is taken in a test tube a ean er nd picric acid solution i Yellow precipitate indicates the presence of K+. solution is added. 2. Test for Calcium:- 2ml of honey is taken in a test tube and NH4CI solution and NH40H solution are added to it. The solution is filtered and to the filtrate 2ml of ammonium oxalate solution is added. White ppt. or milkiness indicates the presence of Ca2+ ions. 3. Test for Magnesium:- 2 ml of honey is taken in a test tube and NHACI solution is added to it and then the excess Ammonium phosphate solution is added. The side of the test tube is scratched with a glass rod. White precipitate indicates the presence of Mg2+ ions. 4. Test for Magnesium: 2 ml of honey is taken in a test tube and NHACI solution is added to it and then an excess Ammonium phosphate solution is added. The side of the test tube is scratched with a glass rod. White precipitate indicates the presence of Mg2* ions. Scanned with CamScanner ee, TEST FOR CARBOHYDRATES- 4. Fehling's test: 2ml of honey is taken in a test tube and 1ml each of Fehling's solution A and Fehling's solution B are added to it and boiled. Red precipitate indicates the presence of reducing sugars. 2. Tollen's test: 2-3 ml of an aqueous solution of honey is taken in a test tube. 2-3ml of Tollen's reagent is added. The test tube is kept in a boiling water bath for about ten minutes. A shining silver mirror indicates the presence of reducing carbohydrates.
