The indicators of quality honey with different botanical origin which were investigated in Kirovohrad regional state laboratory of veterinary medicine for 2014-2018 years and the content of the antibiotic residues in the experimental samples was determined. A study of 160 samples of honey from different honey plants (acacia, buckwheat, sunflower, linden, herbs) was conducted. According to the map of crops of agricultural crops of the Kirovohrad region, species of poverty of melliferous flora can be traced. (about 80 % of crops are sunflower). The quality of the investigated honey is in accordance with the current regulatory acts: water activity in the range of 18,3−19,5 %, сontent of reducing sugars − 78.2−85.04 %, sucrose content − 2,4−5 %, diastase activity – 7,4−37,1 units and the content of hydroxymethylfurfural − 3,2−8 mg/kg, acidity − 18,2−25,4 (mol/dm3)/kg. During the studied period, the content of tetracycline in honey was not detected, streptomycin – 2,0−3,0 μg/kg, chloramphenicol – 0,05−0,1 μg/kg, nitrofurans content 0,15−0,1 μg/kg. The content of residues of other antibacterial substances: metronidazole − 0,18−0,2 μg/kg and sulfatyazole (2017 g) – 1,0 μg/kg.
Keywords: honey, quality, safety, botanical origin, honey plants, content of antibacterial substances.
