Microbiological Assessment, Nutritional Characterization and Phenolic Compounds of Bee Pollen from Mellipona mandacaia Smith, 1983.
This study aims to assess the microbiological parameters and the chemical composition of 21 samples of stingless bee pollen (Melipona mandacaia) from two regions of Bahia, Brazil (João Dourado and Uibaí), with particular emphasis on the nutritional value, total phenols and flavonoids and fatty acids composition. Regarding the microbiological quality, the studied microorganisms (moulds and yeast...
متن کاملOrganic bee pollen: botanical origin, nutritional value, bioactive compounds, antioxidant activity and microbiological quality.
Organic bee pollen (BP, n = 22) harvested from the Douro International Natural Park (DINP, Portugal) was studied. Nine botanical families were found in the mixture of the samples. The water activity and pH ranged 0.21-0.37 and 4.3-5.2, respectively. The BP analyses averaged 67.7% carbohydrates, 21.8% crude protein, 5.2% crude fat and 2.9% ash. The energy ranged from 396.4 to 411.1 kcal/100 g. T...
متن کاملMicrobiological quality control of marketed pollen
Microbiological quality control of 13 pollen samples purchased from local markets and 2 other samples provided by apiarists was investigated. TAMC ranged from 3.00 to 5.48 Log CFU/g. TMYC was between 2.3 and 6.99 Log CFU/g. Staphylococcus aureus was recovered with high density in 14 samples (up to 8.32 Log CFU/g) and Enterobactericeae count ranges from 4.18 to 8.018 Log CFU/g. Moreover, Salmone...
متن کاملERRATUM Bumble bee pollen foraging regulation: role of pollen quality, storage levels, and odor
The regulation of protein collection through pollen foraging plays an important role in pollination and in the life of bee colonies that adjust their foraging to natural variation in pollen protein quality and temporal availability. Bumble bees occupy a wide range of habitats from the Nearctic to the Tropics in which they play an important role as pollinators. However, little is known about how...
متن کاملInfluence of Pollen Nutrition on Honey Bee Health: Do Pollen Quality and Diversity Matter?
Honey bee colonies are highly dependent upon the availability of floral resources from which they get the nutrients (notably pollen) necessary to their development and survival. However, foraging areas are currently affected by the intensification of agriculture and landscape alteration. Bees are therefore confronted to disparities in time and space of floral resource abundance, type and divers...
