Intended Use

For the quantitative in vitro determination of HMF in honey. This product is suitable for automated, semi-automated and manual use.

Clinical Significance

HMF (Hydroxymethylfurfural) is an organic compound produced by acid-catalyzed dehydration of sugars, primarily fructose.

 

The levels of naturally occurring HMF are minimal in fresh honey. Codex Alimentarius Comission (Alinorm 01/25, 200) and the European Union (Directive 100/2001) established that its concentration in the honey usually should not exceed 80 or 40 mg/kg. HMF?s occurrence and accumulation in honey is variable depending on honey type.
