The extent of adulteration of honey samples from various geographical locations in Nigeria was evaluated. In order to ascertain the quality and extent of adulteration of the honey samples, the total titrable acidity, brix content, pH, colour, viscosity, moisture content, total solids, ash content, hydroxymethyl furfural and microbiological analysis were carried out. Honey samples from Akwa-Ibom, Ondo and Ogun had a high hydroxymethyl furfural with coliforms and total bacteria counts being absent, while honey samples from Shaki, Yola and Ibadan had a low hydroxymethyl furfural and some total viable counts were present in them. These results indicate that honey samples from Akwa-Ibom, Ondo and Ogun were completely free of adulteration. However, honey samples obtained from Shaki, Yola and Ibadan were discovered to have undergone some form of adulteration.
对尼日利亚不同地理位置的蜂蜜样本掺假程度进行了评估。为确定蜂蜜样本的质量和掺假程度，进行了总可滴定酸度、糖度、pH值、颜色、粘度、水分含量、总固体、灰分、羟甲基糠醛和微生物分析。来自阿夸伊博姆州、翁多州和奥贡州的蜂蜜样本羟甲基糠醛含量高，且无大肠菌群和总细菌数，而来自沙基、约拉和伊巴丹的蜂蜜样本羟甲基糠醛含量低，且其中存在一些总活菌数。这些结果表明，来自阿夸伊博姆州、翁多州和奥贡州的蜂蜜样本完全没有掺假。然而，发现从沙基、约拉和伊巴丹获得的蜂蜜样本经历了某种形式的掺假。
