Caracterización fisicoquímica y análisis multivariado de la miel artesanal Dxiñaguie’ (Oaxaca, México) frente a estándares nacionales e internacionales
Resumen
Introducción: La miel artesanal del Istmo de Tehuantepec (Dxiñaguie’) posee una identidad biocultural distintiva, pero carece de una validación fisicoquímica integral que la posicione frente a estándares internacionales. Objetivo: Caracterizar el perfil fisicoquímico y la calidad multivariada de la miel Dxiñaguie’ (MD) en comparación con mieles regionales a granel (MR) y controles certificados nacionales (CN) e internacionales (CI). Metodología: Se analizaron 10 parámetros fisicoquímicos bajo la normativa NOM-004-SAG/GAN-2018. Los datos se procesaron mediante ANOVA de una vía (Tukey-Kramer), Análisis de Componentes Principales (PCA) y diagramas de radar para evaluar la huella dactilar química. Resultados: La miel MD presentó indicadores de frescura excepcionales (HMF: 17.79 ± 0.53 mg/kg; Diastasa: 14.30 ± 0.46 U; Lactonas: 5.11 ± 0.19 meq/kg), estadísticamente indistinguibles (p>0.05) de los controles premium (CN y CI). En contraste, el grupo MR exhibió deterioro térmico severo (HMF: 36.32 mg/kg) y procesos fermentativos iniciales (pH 3.70; Acidez Total 44.0 meq/kg). El PCA explicó el 97.3% de la varianza total, revelando que la miel Dxiñaguie’ comparte un espacio multivariado de "alta estabilidad" con la miel de origen internacional, separándose drásticamente del clúster de degradación de la miel regional. Conclusión: La miel Dxiñaguie’ no solo cumple con la normativa mexicana, sino que posee una estabilidad funcional equivalente a estándares internacionales de alto valor. Su perfil químico la distingue significativamente de la oferta regional estándar, validando el impacto positivo de su manejo postcosecha artesanal.
