  Physical-chemical characteristics (moisture, water activity, electrical conductivity, pH, free acidity, reducing sugars, apparent sucrose, hydroxymethylfurfural, ash, insoluble solids and color), total phenolic content, flavonoids, antioxidant and sensorial properties (aroma, flavor, color, fluidity, acceptance and purchase intention) were evaluated in honey bee Melipona subnitida in natura and after dehumidification. The data were submitted to analysis of variance (P<0.01), the means compared by the t-test (p<0.05) and the sensorial analysis by the Friedman test (p<0.05). Comparing the dehumidified honey with the in natura honey, differences in the physical and chemical characteristics of moisture, water activity, reducing sugars, sucrose, ash, insoluble solids in water and color were observed. However, there was no difference in antioxidant capacity, total phenolic.. View More»
