Abstract

Almost all of the stingless honey bees in East Kalimantan are in the district/city. Various types of plants as sources of nectar in each region for stingless bees honey are interesting for research. This study’s purpose was the physicochemical analysis of H. itama honey from different meliponiculture areas in East Kalimantan. The data were analyzed using variance analysis at the 5% level and a further test of the smallest significant difference at the 5% level. The results showed that the physicochemistry of H. itama honey was the respondent’s response value to color 52-100%, aroma 74-92%, taste 56-88%, moisture content 30.80-33.67%, pH value 2.77-3,20, reducing sugar content 51.59-59.56%, sucrose content 1.82-3.82%, total dissolved solids content 67.23-69.77°Brix, ash content 0.17-0.35% and heavy metals were not detectable-0.01 mg / L).
