Metric and Spectral Insight into Bee-Pollen-to-Bee-Bread Transformation Process
Foods, 2023 Due to numerous bioactive constituents, both bee pollen (BP) and bee bread (BB) represent valuable food supplements. The transformation of BP into BB is a complex biochemical in-hive process that enables the preservation of the pollen’s nutritional value. The aim of this study was to determine the depth of the honeycomb cells in which bees store pollen

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2023 Abstract The pollination of several crops, as well as wild plants, depends on honeybees. To get the nutrients required for growth and survival, honeybee colonies are dependent on pollen supply. Bee pollen (BP) is partially packed in honeycomb cells, and processed into beebread (BB) by microbial metabolism.
