PROPIEDADES FISICOQUÍMICAS DE MIELES MONOFLORALES DE ENCENILLO DE LA ZONA ALTOANDINA EN BOYACÁ, COLOMBIA

Honey is the natural product with sweetening properties more widely known, is produced by bees from the nectar of flowers and secretions from the plants. Its physicochemical properties depend on the season of harvest, environmental factors prevailing in the harvest period and the biogeographic zones. The aim of this work was focused in honeys produced by Weinmannia tomentosa from highlands andean of Colombia, that were characterized on melissopalynology, sensory attributes, composition, physicochemical properties and volatile compounds. Pollen grains at the samples were greater than 45%, confe...
