Abstract: The scale of optical rotation of 16 kinds of honey after blending sugars including sucrose,fructose,syrup and invertsugar,were determined. Applying the principle of mathematical statistics, a series of regression equations were gained. Thestatistic analysis results showed that there was a quantitative relationship of linear function between the mixed concentration ofsugar and the scale of optical rotation of honey sample, which could supply a new effective method for inspection of honey quality.

Key words: honey quality, inspection, method of optical rotation, adulterated sugar
