“…S. aureus is highly sensitive either to honey 44 or EEP 45 than other Gram positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In vitro antimicrobial honey activity against MRSA [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] with wide varied potencies of MIC ranging from 3.1 up to 25% or inhibition zone 20,46,47 of 8-28mm. These differences are depending on botanical, geographical and seasonal conditions 48 leading to differences in antimicrobial potency more than 100-fold in-between different honeys.…”

“…10 So, searching for antimicrobial agent that fights biofilm production is of great concern. Against MRSA, not only honey [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] or propolis [22][23][24][25][26][27] has antimicrobial activities, but also they have tremendous antibiofilm activities [28][29][30][31] which are widely studied and documented. Since Egyptian fennel honey has potent antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, [32][33][34] the study aimed to study the antimicrobial activity of Egyptian fennel honey and/or propolis against these stubborn biofilm producing MRSA recovered from food and food workers.…”

“…Most studies focused on a wide range of geographical and botanical origins have been reported in Saudi Arabia (Ghramh et al, 2018), India (Kateel et al, 2018), China (Deng et al, 2018), Brazil (Bueno-Costa et al, 2016), Pakistan (Khalil et al, 2014), Australia (Wong et al, 2017), Spain (Osés et al, 2016), Malaysian (Tan et al, 2009), New Zealand (Lin et al, 2011), Mexican honey (Rodríguez et al, 2012). These studies provide an essential international perspective because the antimicrobial activity of honey obviously differs based on the composition, which is mainly dependent on geographical and botanical origins and postharvest treatment (Deng et al, 2018;Kiriakou et al, 2018).…”

Honey production in Africa is considered an integral part of folk medicine and provides an opportunity for poor rural communities to increase their economic sustainability. In this review, we provide and discuss the data available on the positive nutritional value and health properties of honey harvested from Africa. Besides sugar, honey contains protein and amino acids, with proline which is about 50% of the total amino acids, vitamins, enzymes, some minerals (Na, K, Mg, Ca, Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe, P, S), trace elements (Mn, Ni, Li, F, I, Cl, Sr, Co) and polyphenol compounds. The paper reviewed studies on the use of African honey with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-breast cancer, antidiabetic and antimycotic properties and also its positive effects on infertility (asthenozoospermia), febrile neutropenia and diabetic foot ulcers.

“…O trabalho no apiário exige do apicultor um conhecimento específico sobre a biologia da abelha e o conhecimento prático de manejo, esses aspectos práticos de manejo são o maior desafio do proprietário do apiário (ADAMS, 2016). Nesse sentido, o apicultor deve conhecer o momento mais adequado de coletar o mel (PASIAS et al, 2018) e dispor alimentação suplementar nas colmeias (JOHNSON et al, 2014), além do conhecimento da disponibilidade de plantas apícolas (VERE et al, 2017) e água (OSTWALD et al, 2016).…”

RESUMOO Sistema Toyota de Produção (STP) é uma metodologia para formular ações gerenciais de melhoria em sistemas de produção. Dentro desse sistema, uma etapa é a eliminação de perdas nos processos produtivos, técnica conhecida como a identificação das sete perdas. Em sistemas produtivos simples, como empresas produtoras de mel, apiários, normalmente não são elaboradas técnicas de melhoramento, devido principalmente ao pequeno tamanho dessas empresas e serem apenas atividades de complemento de renda a pequenos agricultores. Porém, a produção de mel representa uma das atividades que fornece grandes oportunidades para a agricultura familiar. Com isso, o objetivo desse estudo de caso é identificar as perdas por meio do Sistema Toyota de Produção em um apiário e realizar as proposições de melhorias. A justificativa do estudo consiste em melhorar o sistema produtivo de um apiário para aumentar a lucratividade dessa empresa e servir de exemplo para outras empresas produtoras de mel, a utilizar o STP para melhorar seu sistema produtivo. As perdas identificadas são principalmente relacionadas ao transporte, movimentação, estoque e espera, uma das sugestões é minimizar a distância entre as colmeias e o entreposto, as outras sugestões estão dispostas mais detalhadas no estudo.Palavras-chave: Sistema Toyota de Produção. Identificação de Perdas. Apiário. Apicultura. ABSTRACTThe Toyota Production System (STP) is a standard for managerial actions to improve production systems. Close up system, one face for the exhaustion processes in product processes, technological software with the identification of seven loss. In simple production systems, honey-producing companies, their own, usually do not elaborate breeding techniques, have their origins, and are just supplementary income activities. However, honey production represents one of the activities that provides the greatest opportunities for family farming. With this, the study of the theme is used as loss through the Toyota Production system in an apiary and perform as propositions for improvements. The justification for the method is to improve the productive system of a program to increase the profitability of a company and to serve as an example for other energy producing companies, such as STP for its production system. The losses are related to the transport, the movement, the stock and the wait, the output of videos is minimal between the colias and the warehouse.
