Suggestions for research

The results are very strange indeed.
A look at the methodology may be a good idea, from collection to analysis?
Maybe we should be looking at other ways of honey identification such as the presence of trace elements in the honey?

Thank you.

Same student. All honey prepared in the same way using method tested in published peer reviewed literature.

Viscosity/centrifugation issue?

Viscosity/centrifugation issue?

All samples diluted down significantly in water so shouldn't be an issue- it's a tested method and working on some samples just not several of mine. Don't think there can be such a significant difference that it stops any pollen being separated.

Could try mixing two samples and see if it is working okay. Bit odd.
