Combining Multivariate Analysis and Pollen Count to Classify Honey Samples Accordingly to Different Botanical Origins

This study reports the combination of multivariate techniques and pollen count analysis to classify honey samples accordingly to botanical sources, in samples from Uruguay. Honey samples from different botanical origins, namely Eucalyptus spp. (n = 10), Lotus spp. (n = 12), Salix spp. (n = 5), "...
