Bee pollen in allergy and immunology. Short review

Herba Polonica, 2017
Bee pollen is a natural resource - pollen collected by bees and stored in the beehive with various bee enzymes added as it is a mixture of plants pollen and bee saliva. It is rich source of various nutrients, among them exogenous amino acids.

Morphological, Physicochemical and FTIR Spectroscopic Properties of Bee Pollen Loads from Different Botanical Origin

Molecules, 2019
Bee pollen loads generally have a homogeneous and monospecific pollen content and assume a typical form and color, due to the typical bee foraging habits, thus having a typical composition related to the botanical origin.

Water activity of fresh bee pollen and mixtures of bee pollen-honey of different botanical origin [PDF]

, 2017
A mixture of bee pollen and honey could represent a complete food supplement for human diet. In this study, for three bee pollen-honey mixtures ratios at two storage times (0 and 90 days) at room temperature, water activity (aw) were investigated.

Commercial Product Based on Metarhizium Anisopliae Affects Survival, Midgut Morphology, and Behavior in the Stingless Bee Scaptotrigona depilis (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazilian social stingless bees are important pollinators and producers of honey, wax, royal jelly, propolis, and other products. These species are experiencing a population decline, attributed to different factors, such as the excessive use of pesticides.

Uneven Culturable Yeast Communities Harbored by Two Sympatric Stingless Bee Species: Scaptotrigona depilis and Tetragona clavipes

Yeast, EarlyView.
To explore the yeast diversity associated with Brazilian stingless bees, we collected samples from bees and their provisions. Sympatric bee species harbor distinct yeast communities, providing insights into bees' foraging choices. Moreover, these communities are dominated by specific taxa with similar metabolic profiles.

Quality Assessment of Bee Pollen: A Cross Sectional Survey in Bulgaria

Journal of Food Quality and Hazards Control, 2018
Background: Due to its nutrient content, a variety of spoilage microorganisms can grow in bee pollen, especially when handling practices are not appropriate. So, this survey was designed to assess the physicochemical and microbiological properties of bee

Perspectives on deciphering mechanisms underlying plant heat stress response and thermotolerance [PDF]

, 2013
Global warming is a major threat for agriculture and food safety and in many cases the negative effects are already apparent. The current challenge of basic and applied plant science is to decipher the molecular mechanisms of heat stress response (HSR ...

Precipitation‐mediated asymmetric fitness consequences of nectar robbing in distylous Primula florindae

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowers with deep corollas are frequently associated with nectar robbing, a behaviour that often reduces pollen transfer and seed production. Robbing scars, however, may further affect plant reproductive success through rainwater entry into corolla tubes.
