Abstract  As a kind of natural, nutrient-rich food and health care product, honey is favored by consumers around the world. However, it is a highly adulterated food. Therefore, the research on the authenticity identification and detection technology of honey has been long deeply concerned. Here, domestic and international researches on the honey quality were summarized, and a vision about the identification techniques and authenticity analysis of honey in recent 20 years was introduced. According to the comprehensive analysis, the authenticity of honey could be identified to some extent effectively by modern detection technology which is conducive to the quality control of honey. However, there existed defects such as requiring expensive instruments, complex operation, long testing time, professional background and fixed operating location, etc. Moreover, it is difficult to eliminate honey adulteration completely as the development and application of the existing honey detection technology have fallen behind the adulteration technology. It is necessary to develop specific identification technology mainly focusing on the endogenous honey components, not on the exogenous substances. In recent years, the research and application of biomarkers based on genomics and proteomics are very common in related fields. However, there are no reports on identification of honey authenticity and nectar based on these technologies. It is expected that developing a new fast test technique based on honey characteristic markers—immuno-colloidal gold chromatographic test strips or kits will be the main development direction of honey quality control and authenticity identification technology in the future.

蜂蜜真伪鉴别和检测技术研究进展

蜂蜜作为营养丰富的天然食品和保健品,深受全球消费者喜爱,但它却是一种极易掺假的食品,因此,研究蜂蜜真伪鉴别技术长期深受关注。本文介绍了近20年来国内外蜂蜜质量控制研究进展,以及蜂蜜真实性研究方法和鉴别技术。综合分析认为,现有蜂蜜检测技术在一定程度上能够有效鉴别蜂蜜真伪,有利于蜂蜜质量控制,但存在所需仪器价格昂贵、操作复杂、检测时间长、需要检测人员有专业背景、操作地点固定等缺陷;同时,现有蜂蜜鉴别分析技术常常落后于掺假技术,难以杜绝蜂蜜掺假。因此,有必要研发主要针对蜂蜜内源性特有成分,而不是依赖外源添加物质的分析鉴别新技术。近年来,基于基因组学、蛋白组学的生物标志物研究在相关领域的应用非常普遍,但尚未见基于相关组学技术应用于蜂蜜真伪和花蜜鉴别的研究报道中。因此,研究开发基于蜂蜜特征标志物的快速检测新技术——免疫胶体金层析试纸条或试剂盒检测,将是今后蜂蜜质量控制及真伪鉴别技术的主要发展方向。
