honey types (floral and other honeydew honeys) was proposed. It is based on the
identification of the signals of the protons and the carbon of the methylene group of quercitol
in the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of honey. The presence of quercitol was supported by
TOCSY spectroscopy. Quercitol is a deoxyinositol which is regarded as a good taxonomic
marker for the genus Quercus. All samples of oak honeydew honey contained quercitol …
