Abstract Background: Honey contains a complex mixture of carbohydrates and other minor substances. Elements are minor constituents of honey that may threaten the human health in excess concentrations. So, determining the metals in honey helps its quality control as a food product. The aim of this study was to determine the concentrations of some metals in Iranian honey. Methods: This study was performed in four regions of Ardabil, a province of Iran. Honey samples (n = 25) were digested in microwave... | |
