Brazilian Red Propolis—Chemical Composition and Botanical Origin
Propolis contains resinous substances collected by honey bees from various plant sources and has been used as a traditional folk medicine since ca 300 BC. Nowadays, the use of evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is increasing rapidly and so is the use of propolis in order to treat or support the treatment of various diseases.

متن کاملA new proposal concerning the botanical origin of Baltic amber.
Baltic amber constitutes the largest known deposit of fossil plant resin and the richest repository of fossil insects of any age. Despite a remarkable legacy of archaeological, geochemical and palaeobiological investigation, the botanical origin of this exceptional resource remains controversial. Here, we use taxonomically explicit applications of solid-state Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) m...
متن کاملChemical Composition and Botanical Origin of Red Propolis, a New Type of Brazilian Propolis
Red propolis is a new type of Brazilian propolis. This material, as well as the secretions of 20 plant species that are often mentioned as its probable botanical source, have been investigated by RP-HPTLC. Phytochemical evidence based on UV-VIS spectra, RP-HPLC and GC-MS, showed Dalbergia ecastophyllum (L.) Taub. to be the main source of red propolis in Alagoas state. The propolis and plant res...
متن کاملAntiproliferation of human prostate cancer cells by ethanolic extracts of Brazilian propolis and its botanical origin.
Propolis is a resinous substance collected by bees (Apis mellifera) from various tree buds which they then use to coat hive parts and to seal cracks and crevices in the hive. Propolis, a known ancient folk medicine, has been extensively used in diet to improve health and to prevent disease. In the present study, we have evaluated the effects of ethanolic extracts of Brazilian propolis group l2 ...
متن کاملQualitative Melissopalynology Analysis, Glucose Oxydase Activity, and Antibacterial Effect of Honey Samples from Different Botanical Origin
Background and Aim: This research aims to study the qualitative melissopalynology analysis, Glucose oxydase (GOX) activity, and the antibacterial effect of honey samples from different botanical and geographical origins.
