Identification of pollen types of beekeeping interest by non‐targeted mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 62-73, February 2025.
Abstract Background The identification of pollen is important in the field of beekeeping for the determination of the botanical origin of bee products and investigations of bee diet. Until now, it has been performed by melissopalynology, the microscopic examination of pollen grains. However, this technique has some limitations, such as the necessity of
