Abstract
Rapidly granulating honeys are stabilized by addition of levulose; addition of dextrose to rarely granulating honeys increases the tendency to granulate. The most unstable honey studied was stabilized at a water content of 20% followed by heating for 3 hrs. at 50[degree]C. This water content is well within the range for natural honeys; it does not seriously affect the body of the honey, and is not high enough to increase the hazard of fermentation, provided the honey is properly pasteurized.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
