Turanose is a naturally occurring isomer of sucrose found in honey. It has anti-inflammatory and fat-regulating activities. It has research potential for obesity and related chronic diseases.

Ethyl phenylacetate is a “greener solvent with low toxicity. Ethyl phenylacetate is a non-mutagenic and is a Kosher food additive. Ethyl phenylacetate gives the wines a strong honey-like character. Ethyl phenylacetate is a natural flavoring ingredient, and its sensory threshold is near 73 µg/L. 

Isovaleric acid (Delphinic acid) is a naturally occurring aroma compound found in Bartlett pear brandies, vanilla beans, rape-honey, and banana.

Spirostan-3-ol (Sarsaponin) is a stereoisomer of Sarsasapogenin (S142505), a steroid glycoside isolated from plant materials. A saponin with with potential anti-tumor activity via apoptosis.

Pinocembrin (5,7-Dihydroxyflavanone) is a flavanone, a type of flavonoid. It is an antioxidant found in damiana, honey, fingerroot, and propolis.

The use of costic acid and other components from the plant Dittrichia viscosa (Greek: aconiza) and related species for the preparation of acaricidal products used against the acari Varroa destructor as parasite of the honey bee.

Echimidine, a major hepatotoxic dehydropyrrolizidine alkaloid produced by E. plantagineum, in the honey (780 ng/g) and in the subsequent mead samples (236-540 ng/mL). Echimidine-N-Oxide has antifungal activity.

(9Z)-Tricosene is a pheromone released by insects, including D. melanogaster, M. domestica (house fly), and A. mellifera L. (honey bee). In Drosophila, it induces aggregation behavior and is an oviposition guidance cue for females. Due to its aggregation-inducing activity, it is used as a bait pesticide to attract insects to traps. The mechanism of action in Drosophila is the activation of antennal basiconic Or7a receptors. It is also highly produced by honey bees during the waggle dance, which is a complex communication process used to alert nest-mates of the location and profitability of a food source. When injected into a hive, (9Z)-tricosene induced foraging behavior.

Turanose is a naturally occurring isomer of sucrose found in honey. It has anti-inflammatory and fat-regulating activities. It has research potential for obesity and related chronic diseases.

Pinobanksin 3-acetate (3-O-Acetylpinobanksin), a flavonoid derivative, is a strong antioxidant found in sunflowers and honey that inhibits LDL peroxidation.

Licoricesaponin G2 is a pentacyclic triterpenoid derived from Glycyrrhiza aspera, which can be used to differentiate crude liquorice from honey-processed liquorice.

3-Furanoic acid (3-Carboxyfuran) is an organic acid regularly occurring in the urine of healthy individuals. 3-Furanoic acid (3-Carboxyfuran) is also a compound found in honey and honeydew samples.

Lasiocarpine N-oxide is a natural compound found to be higher in many tea bags, herbal drugs and honey by mass spectrometry.

(-)-5-Epilithospermoside is proposed as a potential marker of botanical origin for phacelia honey.

Dehydrovomifoliol could be a marker of Polish heather honey. Dehydrovomifoliol exhibits moderate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities. Dehydrovomifoliol shows significant cytotoxic activities against three human cancer cell lines, namely, HONE-1 nasopharyngeal, KB oral epidermoid carcinoma, and HT29 colorectal carcinoma cells, and the IC(50) values in the range 3.7-8.1 microM.

Perseitol is a sugar that is specific to avocado honey. Perseitol have recently been reported as candidate biomarkers for avocado intake.

Phenylpyruvic acid (3-Phenylpyruvic acid) is a keto-acid that is an intermediate or catabolic byproduct of phenylalanine metabolism. It has a slight honey-like odor. Levels of phenylpyruvate are normally very low in blood or urine. High levels of phenylpyruvic acid can be found in the urine of individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU), an inborn error of metabolism.

Fructose (Fructopyranose) is a simple ketonic monosaccharide extracted from Honey,fruits,berries,melon.
