FIELD: food industry.
SUBSTANCE: one selects samples of linden honey, determines glucose and fructose content in the samples by way of a highly efficient liquid chromatography method, additionally one determines total acidity and diastase number and, per the totality of the said indices, one estimates freshness (age) of linden honey; honey is considered to be fresh if glucose and fructose content stays within the ranges of 27.4-29.9 wt % and 33.9-36.6 wt % respectively while acidity and diastase number stay within the ranges of 1.8-2.5 cm3 0.1 N NaOH per 100 g of honey and 16-19 units Gotha respectively.
EFFECT: enhancement of accuracy, reproducibility, validity and reliability of determination.
