Parameters	Unifloral types (average ± standard deviation)						X	LSD	P-V	CV
	Vernonia honey	C. macrostachyus honey	Guizotia honey	C. arabica honey	Eucalyptus honey	S. abyssinica honey
TPC (mg GAE/100 g of honey)	77.2 ± 0.7a	70.3 ± 1.6b	57.6 ± 0.3c	47.9 ± 2.2c	26.3 ± 1.1e	24.1 ± 0.4f	49.2	2.1	<0.0001	2.4
TFC (mg QE/100 g of honey)	65.0 ± 3.8a	53.4 ± 0.5b	31.5 ± 0.7d	39.7 ± 2.2d	26.2 ± 0.2e	18.6 ± 2.7f	40.4	3.8	<0.0001	5.4
AC (mg AAE/100 g of honey)	65.4 ± 0.3a	27.4 ± 1.1b	9.0 ± 4.5c	6.4 ± 1.4c	5.9 ± 0.1c	5.6 ± 0.5c	19.9	3.5	<0.0001	10

Different superscripts in a row vary statistically at a 1% probability level. Note: mg GAE/100 g of honey = milligrams of gallic acid equivalent in 100 g of honey; mg QE/100 g of honey = milligrams of quercetin equivalent in 100 g of sample; mg AAE/100 g of honey = milligrams of ascorbic acid equal in hundred grams of honey; X = mean; LSD = least significant difference; P-V = p value; CV = coefficient of variation in % age.
