Abstract

Honey has been made from some variety of date (Phoenix dactylifera L) Ghars, Tinicin and Tekermist (Tantbocht). The aim of this study is to determine different phytochemical compound and antioxidant properties of honey dates from Ouedrigh and Ouedsouf regions. The physical properties of these samples were very high significantly differences (p<0.001) on moisture and pH value with dark color in all type of honey dates. In addition, There were a significant differences (p<0.05) on total phenols, flavonoids and total sugars content among samples. Based on antioxidant properties, there were also significant difference (p<0.05) between the different samples. In conclusion the different product of honey date given the different beneficial antioxidant properties of these varieties but the dates honey Tinicin has a high importance antioxidant effect and physicochemical properties compared to the auther variety of honey dates.
