Abstract :

The present investigation was undertaken to determine the chemical analysis of 6 Winter honey samples (CHN-CHI-TUK, CHN-CHI-KUT, CHN-CHI-KAJ, CHN-CHI-ALL, CHN-CHI-MOT, CHN-CHI-BOR) collected from forest area of Chimur Tahsil of Chandrapur District of Maharashtra State (India). These samples were analysed for several parameters such as moisture, total reducing sugar, Levulose or Fructose, Dextrose or Glucose, L/D ratio, Sucrose, Acidity. This type of chemical analysis favours the utilization of the honey for good quality in this area.
Key words: Chemical Analysis, Winter Honey, Chimur Tahsil.
