🧪 Honey Quality Testing Lab

A 3D laboratory bench where moisture, HMF, diastase activity and pollen tests respond live to heat stress and adulteration, showing why the four tests must agree.

A 3D laboratory bench with four side-by-side instruments — refractometer, HMF colour test, diastase enzyme assay and pollen microscopy — that respond live as you dial in heat stress, moisture, and sample authenticity.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Heating or long warm storage raises HMF while destroying the diastase enzyme — the same inverse relationship labs rely on to spot overheated or aged honey. Adulterated syrup samples show a collapsed pollen count even when other numbers look normal.

🎮 How to Use

Drag the heat/storage stress and moisture sliders to watch each instrument react in real time, switch the sample to a syrup blend to see pollen vanish, and use the focus dropdown to zoom into any single station.

💡 Did You Know?

Because HMF and diastase move in opposite directions when honey is heated, a sample with high HMF but unexpectedly high diastase raises suspicion that enzymes were added back after the honey was damaged by heat.
