“…NIR technology has been described as a successful tool in analytical instrumentation and quality control in various fields such as food adulteration, authenticity control, the assessment of physicochemical attributes, rheological, or technological properties [1,13,[23][24][25][26], as well as in petrochemical industries, plastic contaminants, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and medical applications [22,27]. This method has been widely used in the field of honey quality detection, such as in the determination of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural [24,[28][29][30], diastase activity [7], moisture and reducing sugar content [23,24,28,31], compounds with antioxidant activity such polyphenols or minerals [1,25], floral origin discrimination [5,6,32], and honey adulteration [33,34].…”
