In this paperwork are presented data on the trace mineral content of Robinia
pseudacacia, lime, sun flower and polyflower honey collected from various areas of
southern region. Analyzes regarding the trace mineral content were carried out from
14th to 30th of February 2009 in the atomic and molecular spectroscopy laboratory at
the Faculty of Agro-alimentary Products, USAMVB Timisoara, by atomic absorption
in flame by spectrometer Contr AA 300 with continuous source. There were analyzed
12 samples of honey from 4 honey types (acacia, lime, sun flower and polyflower)
