Welcome to Melimetric!

Melimetric is a research group dedicated to studying the qualities that define honey. We employ interdisciplinary techniques to paint a comprehensive picture of the features that make South African honeys so exceptional. Through close collaboration with regional and national beekeeping associations, we strive to align our research with the needs of the South African industry.
