Good Manufacturing Practices in Honey Production Valeria Santa

All food must meet certain quality standards to be considered a good quality and safe product for the consumer. This book describes the physicochemical quality parameters of honey, the acceptable limits of these parameters and a detailed description of the analysis techniques used for each determination. The pollen quality of the honey is also analyzed: the morphological characteristics of the pollen grains are described and the techniques used in Melisopalinology are detailed. The concepts related to the different quality management systems that can be implemented during production are also developed, with the aim of obtaining quality honeys.
