Abstract
A determination of physical properties of some Egyptian honey collected from different locations of Egypt. Was don using many techniques. The moisture content ranged between 20.14in clover honey and 21.875 in cotton honey% , specific gravity recorded no clear change between all samples while the viscosity ranged between 15.3 in cotton honey and 25.64 in clover honey whereas the granulation ranged between 0.802 in clover honey and 1.2925 in cotton honey ,The electrical conductivity(E.C) ranged between 0.013 in citrus honey and 0.1425 in cotton honey whereas total soluble solids (T.S.S) ranged between 78.8 in citrus honey and 79.9 in clover honey while the color ranged between 0.2045 in citrus honey and 0.551 in cotton honey.
