STUDIES CONCERNING THE MAIN CONTAMINANTS PRESENT IN HONEY FROM SOUTHERN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: The exceptional qualities of honey can be altered by many factors, including environmental pollution and treatment of bees with a range of products. Recent researches have brought to light different pathological circumstances in which honey has heeling effects. In the same time, honey raises problems of food safety, because of the possibility of being contaminated with different pollutants having negative effects on the consumers. In the present paper, it was presented a practical problem: the evolution of the presence of Amitraz residues in honey samples, taking in account the method used in the treatment application, as evaluated in some Romanian honey samples from a Southern County of Romania. Our conclusion is that no matter the method of application, after approximately 28 days the residues have the tendency to lower very much.
