Abstract
The application of DOSY (Diffusion Ordered SpectroscopY) NMR as a technique for the virtual separation of key components of manuka honey and the implications for future discriminatory analysis of honey types is reported for the first time. The scope and the limitations of DOSY NMR are considered using the recently conceived DOSY Tool Box processing software and preliminary anti-bacterial data for the different honey types is reported.
