History of melissopalynological methods

Abstract

Melissopalynology is a branch of palynology, that gives foreknowledge about the botanical and the geographical source of honey. Honey always contains various pollen grains and also honeydew elements (algae, fungal spores etc.) and these give information about the environment that honey comes from. While melissopalynology examines the pollen and the other particles in the honey, it also gives detailed data about the process of honey production such as extraction, filtaration, fermentation, adulteration and the hygiene of honey sample. Melissoplaynological researches was started firstly by Pfister (1895) and in the following years so many researches were done. Melissopalynological analysis generally classified as qualitative and quantitative analysis. Qualitative analyses are based on identification of pollen types and the other microparticules that observed in the honey. As for quantitative analysis are the analysis that are focused on the calculation of pollen richness in the honey. The results of the melissopalynological analysis show that pollen analysis is necessary to characterize the source of honey. The significant point is the person who does the pollen analysis must be experienced. On the other hand any faults about the pollen identification cause bigger problems for further interpretations
