Floral classification of honey using liquid chromatography–diode array detection–tandem mass spectrometry and chemometric analysis.

Highlights: [•] Twelve of flavonoids were quantified in honey samples by HPLC–DAD–MS/MS. [•] Three floral markers were found to discriminate honey samples. [•] Fingerprint feature areas were achieved to classify honey samples. [•] Honey samples could be successfully classified on the basis of chemometrics models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
