COMPLETE RANGE of ANALYZES

analyzes

Honey has a range of uses from human consumption, health and beauty products through to medicinal use. Based on your requirements we are able to test honey, whether it is Manuka honey for its strength and activity or checking if honey has been adulterated. Honey can potentially contain trace impurities such as antibiotics or pesticides.

Sugar Analysis

analyzes

Leeder Analytical can test from monosaccharides through to trisaccharides. Sugars routinely analysed for include fructose, glucose, and sucrose. For more detailed analysis we offer monosaccharides, disaccharides and trisaccharide sugar profiles. Some of the compounds that Leeder Analytical offer in our carbohydrate analysis include; a,a-trehalose, a,b-trehalose, Arabinose, Cellobiose, Erlose, Fucose, Fructose, Fucitol, Glucose, Galactose, Gentobiose, Glucoheptose, Kestose, Kojibiose, Inulobiose, Isomaltose, Lactose, Lactulose, Laminaribiose, Mannose, Mannitol, Maltulose, Maltotriose, Melibiose, Panose, Palatinose, Persetol, Nigerose, Raffinose, Rhamnose, Ribose, Stachyose, Sorbitol, Sucrose, Turanose, Verbascose, Xylitol and Maltose.

Determination of amitraz residues from honey by HPLC / MS screening method

analyzes

Amitraz is the active ingredient in Apivar and Apitraz strips that are used in hives to kill Varroa mites. When bees come into contact with the strips, amitraz is released from the strips and transported by the bees around the hive, killing Varroa. Amitraz breaks down into a series of metabolites in the hive, some of which can be toxic to both bees and humans at high enough levels. There is a higher risk that amitraz and its metabolites will be detectable in honey when strips are left in hives for longer than guideline recommendations or when hives are treated with more than the recommended number of strips. Note, other common miticides such as flumethrin (Bayvarol) and fluvalinate (Apistan) are more prone to accumulate in beeswax rather than honey.

Nitrosamines analysis

analyzes

Nitrosamines can be produced in food where nitrates are added as a means of preservation. Typical compounds we can analyse include: N-Nitrosodimethylamine, N-Nitrosomethylethylamine, N-Nitrosodiethylamine, N-Nitrosopyrrolidine, N-Nitrosomorpholine, N-Nitrosodi-n-propylamine, N-Nitrosopiperidine, N-Nitrosodi-n-butylamine and N-Nitrosodiphenylamine.
