Journal Title: International Journal of Food Science, Nutrition and Dietetics (IJFS) - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 1

Honey is an excellent nutritious food and is widely produced and marketed. However, there have been complaints that some marketed honey is adulterated with maltose. We quantified glucose, fructose, maltose and sucrose contained in honey products in the marketplace, and showed that some had been adulterated.
