Agradecimentos: The COLOSS (Prevention of honey bee COlony LOSSes) Association aims to explain and prevent massive honey bee colony losses. It was funded through the COST Action FA0803. COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a unique means for European researchers to jointly develop their own ideas and new initiatives across all scientific disciplines through trans-European networking of nationally funded research activities. Based on a pan-European intergovernmental framework for cooperation in science and technology, COST has contributed since its creation more than 40 years ago to closing the gap between science, policy makers and society throughout Europe and beyond. COST is supported by the EU Seventh Framework Program for research, technological development and demonstration activities (Official Journal L 412, 30 December 2006). The European Science Foundation as implementing agent of COST provides the COST Office through an EC Grant Agreement. The Council of the European Union provides the COST Secretariat. The COLOSS network is now supported by the Ricola Foundation – Nature & Culture

Propolis is one of the most fascinating honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) products. It is a plant derived product that bees produce from resins that they collect from different plant organs and with which they mix beeswax. Propolis is a building material and a protective agent in the bee hive. It also plays an important role in honey bee social immunity, and is widely used by humans as an ingredient of nutraceuticals, over-the-counter preparations and cosmetics. Its chemical composition varies by geographic location, climatic zone and local flora. The understanding of the chemical diversity of propolis is very important in propolis research. In this manuscript, we give an overview of the available methods for studying propolis in different aspects: propolis in the bee colony; chemical composition and plant sources of propolis; biological activity of propolis with respect to bees and humans; and approaches for standardization and quality control for the purposes of industrial application.
El própolis es uno de los productos más fascinante de la abeja de la miel (Apis mellifera L.). Es un producto derivado de plantas que las abejas producen a partir de resinas que recogen en diferentes órganos de la planta y que mezclan con la cera de abejas. El própolis es un material de construcción y un agente protector en la colmena de abejas. También juega un papel importante en la inmunidad social de la abeja de la miel, y es ampliamente utilizado por los seres humanos como un ingrediente de nutracéuticos, preparados de venta no regulada y cosméticos. Su composición química varía según la ubicación geográfica, la zona climática y la flora local. La comprensión de la diversidad química del própolis es muy importante en su investigación. En este manuscrito, damos una visión general de los métodos disponibles para el estudio del própolis en diferentes aspectos: própolis en la colonia de abejas; composición química y fuentes vegetales del própolis; actividad biológica del própolis con respecto a las abejas y los seres humanos; y enfoques para la normalización y control de calidad para los fines de aplicación industrial
蜂胶是一种重要而特别的蜂产品。蜂胶是通过蜜蜂采集树脂后,混合蜂蜡酿造而成。蜂胶是蜂巢的重要建造材料。蜂胶能够抑制病菌生长,对蜜蜂的社会免疫起到重要作用。不仅如此,蜂胶还广泛用于功能食品和化妆品。不同蜂胶的化学成分也不相同,这主要是和当地的气候与植物群落有关。了解蜂胶的化学成分对于蜂胶研究非常重要。本文将从不同角度概述蜂胶的研究方法:蜜蜂蜂群内的蜂胶分析;蜂胶成分和植物源分析;蜂胶对蜜蜂和人的功能性分析;蜂胶产业化应用和质量标准分析
