Changes of physical -chemical properties depending on the length honey storage

Grana poljoprivrede koja se bavi uzgojem pčela radi dobivanja pčelinjih proizvoda naziva se pčelarstvo. Fizikalna i kemijska svojstva tih proizvoda ovise o biološkom i geografskom porijeklu medonosnih biljaka, te sposobnosti pčelara da te proizvode pravilno sakupi i skladišti. Med je poznat kao ljekovita prehrambena namirnica, a razvojem tehnologije istražuju se pojedine komponente meda i spojevi, koji medu daju ta ljekovita svojstva. Pčele sakupljajući nektar, probavnim enzimima ga pretvaraju u med koji služi za prehranu zajednice. S obzirom na porijeklo nastanka meda postoje cvjetni med, medljikovac i miješani med. U ovom radu, rađene su kemijske i spektrofotometrijske metode na različitim uzorcima meda.A sector of agriculture, which involves breeding of bees for the purpose of obtaining beeproducts is called beekeping. The physical and chemical properties of these products depend on the biological and geographical origin of melliferous plants, as well as the ability of beekeepers to properly collect and store the products. Honey is known to be one of the best medicional nutritional foods and as the technology developes, certain components of honey are beeing explored, especially compounds, which have healing properties for humans. Bees harvest nectar and with the help of their digestive enzymes, convert it into honey that serves for feeding the beecolony. Taking into consideration the origin of the honey, there are blossom honey, honeydew honey and mixed honey. In this paper, chemical and spectrophotometric methods were performed on different honey samples
