dc.description.abstractThe study aimed to investigate the quality of honey based On botanical origin, physicochemical, antimicrobial, antioxidant and sem'olY properties collected ./i'om Belete -Cera forest, Jimma, Ethiopia. A total fol'/y eight samples honey samples were collectedji'om Jimma- Ethiopia and categorized into seven mono/loral honey I.Ising melissopalynology. Sugars (/i'uctose, glucose, suc/'Ose, maltose) and hydroxylmethy/iu/ilral were investigated using high per/ilrmance liquid chromatography and moisture, pH, acidity, ash, au., conductivity and colour were analysed using harmonized method of the international honey commission. The antioxidant content (phenol, flavonoid) and antioxidant activity (2, 2 -Diphenyl I-picryl hydrazyl assay, ferric reducing antioxidant power, Peroxide Radical scavenging activitie.l) were analysed using UV. Ipectrophotometer. The antimicrobial properties were analysed using disc diffi.lsion and sensruy acceptability based on seven hedonic scale. The mono/lora honey /ilund in Belete-Cera were: Eucalyptus. Cuizotia spp, Viciafaba, Trifolium, Vernonia.
