Resumen:
The assessment of geographical origin of honey is economically important for producers and consumersas every region may present particular quality characteristics. In this study, honeys from the seven differentregions of Buenos Aires province (Argentina) were characterised by their antioxidant capacity (DPPH,FRAP), total phenolic content (TPC), mineral composition, colour and ash. Honeys showed significantdifferences among their antioxidant capacity (DPPH), ash, colour and mineral content (P ≤ 0.05). Besides,a good antioxidant activity and low amounts of Cu and Zn (
