Abstract

Prikupljeno je 24 uzorka meda kadulje s područja Hrvatskog primorja i Dalmacije te su im
određena senzorska svojstva, provedena je melisopalinološka i fizikalno-kemijska analiza i
izmjerena koncentracija 10 elemenata. Provođenje senzorske analize pomaže u detekciji defekata,
otkrivanju različitih vrsta patvorenja meda te kao dopunska metoda fizikalno-kemijskoj i
melisopalinološkoj analizi otkriva neadekvatno označavanje meda vezano za botaničko i
geografsko podrijetlo. Svrha ovog rada bila je potvrditi uniflornost uzoraka i okarakterizirati
mineralni profil meda kadulje prikupljenih s različitih geografskih lokacija u Hrvatskoj te utvrditi
koncentraciju važnijih makro- i mikroelemenata (kadmij, krom, nikal, olovo, živa, arsen, bakar,
željezo, cink i mangan).

Abstract (english)

Twenty four samples of sage honey from the area of the Croatian coast and Dalmatia were
collected and their sensory properties were determined, a melissopalynological and physicalchemical analysis was carried out and the concentration of 10 elements was measured. Conducting
sensory analysis helps in detecting defects, detecting different types of honey adulteration, and as
a supplementary method to physical-chemical and melissopalynological analysis, it reveals
inadequate labeling of honey related to botanical or geographical origin. The main purpose of this
study is to confirm the uniflorality of the samples and to characterize the mineral profile of sage
honey collected from different geographical locations within Croatia and determine the
concentration of important macro- and microelements (cadmium, chromium, nickel, lead,
mercury, arsenic, copper, zinc, iron and manganese).
