Scientific Analyses

 

It will be possible to perform the following analysis in the Honey Analysis Laboratory:

 

HMF, Moisture, diastasis number, quantification of proline, electrical conductivity, free acidity, ratio of c4 sugars, sugar profile, heavy metals, naphthalene, antibiotic, pesticide and insecticide residuals.

 

With these analyses, consumers will be provided better products and Honey Filling and Packaging Center will enable us to produce world class products.

 

Wax Making Cycle

 

It was stated that comb foundation which is used on bees has a great importance for a healthy beekeeping, for this purpose, bee waxes will be used on bees by establishing a wax making cycle within the area and it is aimed to create awareness in the product range by producing api-therapy products.
