Abstract

The physical and chemical parameters of Amorpha fruticosa honey were determined based on several published standards in this study. The volatile compounds in A. fruticosa honey were detected by headspace solid-phase micro-extraction coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The results showed that the contents of moisture, acidity, diastase number were in the range of 15.5%-17.8%, 14.8-25.8 mL/kg, 27.2-70.6 mL/(g·h), respectively. The 5-hydroxymethylfurfural concentration was less than 28.7 mg/kg. The sum of the fructose and the glucose ranged from 65.9% to 71.1%, and the sucrose content was less than 2.42%. The physical and chemical parameters of A. fruticosa honey all meet the requirements of national and industry standards. Seventy-eight different volatile compounds were tentatively identified in A. fruticosa honey, and the aldehydes, alcohols, acids, terpenes, and aromatics were the main components of volatile compounds, and the dominant compounds were phenylethyl alcohol, benzeneacetaldehyde and nonanal. In summary, the A. fruticosa honey has the characteristics of high diastase and abundant volatile compounds.
