10-HDA is a unique compound found only in royal jelly and is considered the gold standard for measuring its authenticity. Its proportion determines the potency, quality, and health benefits of royal jelly. A higher concentration means a pure, high-quality product that delivers maximum benefits.
Royal jelly is a very delicate and highly perishable product. If the moisture content increases, it can spoil quickly. This test ensures that the water and volatile matter content remains within safe limits, keeping the jelly stable, fresh, and effective during use.
Proteins are a key component of royal jelly's nutritional power. This test measures protein concentration to ensure it is rich in amino acids and bioactive compounds that support immunity, energy, and vitality.
Although royal jelly does not contain as many sugars as honey, it does contain a small, naturally occurring percentage that is important for its stability and nutritional value. Testing confirms that this percentage is natural and free from any artificial additives.
Phenols are powerful antioxidants that give propolis its therapeutic properties. Testing measures their levels to ensure maximum protection and health benefits.
Increased humidity reduces the quality of propolis and may cause spoilage. This test ensures it is pure, concentrated, and suitable for long-term use.
Flavonoids are natural plant compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Measuring them ensures the potency and full effectiveness of propolis.
Propolis consists of resin, oils, and wax. An excess of wax reduces its quality. This test ensures the correct balance and purity of the product.
This test identifies the plants and regions from which the bees collected pollen. It proves its authenticity and confirms that it comes from natural and reliable sources.
Pollen contains naturally occurring sugars rich in energy. Testing confirms that these sugars are pure and have not been modified or mixed with external sugars.
Protein is one of the most important nutrients in pollen. This test confirms its high nutritional value and its richness in natural proteins and amino acids.
This test measures all the naturally occurring sugars in honey, such as glucose and fructose, and accurately determines their proportions. This ensures that the honey is genuine, natural, and balanced, and reveals any artificial additives or adulteration. Only pure honey passes this test.
Natural honey contains enzymes such as diastase, which are very sensitive to heat and processing. This test measures enzyme activity using the nitrophenol method. A high score indicates that the honey is fresh, raw, and has not been subjected to excessive heat or processing, which is evidence of its true quality.
Ion chromatography is a highly advanced method that accurately measures the sugars in honey. This method detects even trace amounts of artificial sugars, ensuring that our honey is 100% natural and adulterated.
Moisture content directly affects honey quality. If it becomes too high, it becomes unstable and may ferment and spoil. This test helps ensure that the honey has an ideal low moisture content to remain pure, fresh, and safe for storage.
Honey is naturally acidic, which inhibits the growth of bacteria and microbes. Measuring its pH helps ensure that the honey has retained its natural acidity, thus confirming its freshness, purity, and long shelf life without the need for artificial preservatives.
(HMF) is a compound that forms when honey is excessively heated or stored for extended periods. Low levels indicate that the honey has been carefully preserved and remained raw in its natural state. This test ensures that the honey you receive is fresh and of high quality.
This test examines the pollen grains in the honey to identify the flowers and plants the bees visited and the region where the honey was produced. This proves the honey's authenticity, reveals its floral diversity, and confirms its country of origin—each jar telling its own story.
