Comparison of Chilean honeys through MALDI-TOF-MS profiling and evaluation of their antioxidant and antibacterial potential

Honey is the most famous natural sweet substance produced by honeybees (Apis mellifera). It contains numerous functional compounds, from which health benefits are obtained. In Chile, the production of honey is associated with its unique biodiversity, but it is exported mostly, as bulk honey. This wo...
