Abstract: Application of NMR as a solution for detecting honey fraud. At QSI, NMR honey profiling is used routinely to detect honey adulteration, particularly the addition of sugar syrups – the most widespread form of honey fraud. Declared botanical variety and geographical origin can also be verified with this technique. In this webinar, Gudrun Beckh (CEO at QSI) will discuss how NMR is applied in routine analysis and the advantages it has to offer over other techniques. Traditional testing methods often struggle to detect new and sophisticated sugar syrups that have been designed to pass adulteration tests.
