Physicochemical and microbiological analysis of stingless bees honey collected from local market in malaysia

Honey is a sweet, viscous solution containing approximately 200 compounds, with the major content being water and sugars [1]. Due to its high nutritional value and unique taste, honey became popular as natural sweetener and medicine [2]. The growing demand for honey in the market has led to the occu...
