dc.description.abstract | The study's goals were to characterize and assess the honey's complex elemental composition and to evaluate the possibility of toxic elements in honey from two distinct countries. Seven different floral kinds of honey were investigated, namely, mustard (Brassica nigra), Black Seed (Nigella sativa) litchi (Litchi chinensis), Wild (Sundarban’s), Acacia ( Robinia pseudoacacia), Chestnut (Castanea sativa) and Forest/Honeydew honey. The highest potassium content is found in Bangladeshi and Hungarian honey, with an average potassium content of 948 mg/kg in Bangladesh and 1367 mg/kg on average in Hungary. Samples of Hungarian honey were shown to have a lower aluminum risk than samples of Bangladeshi honey. According to the results of the current investigation, it can be assumed that children are the demographic group most exposed to toxic elements. We found that the mineral levels in black seed, wild B3, chestnut honey, and forest honey were exceptionally high. | |
