“…Dark honeys (buckwheat and honeydew) showed a higher content of these compounds. This is a well-known feature of honey: the darker the honey, the richer in polyphenols, which was previously presented by several authors [22][23][24]. Comparing ecological Podkarpackie honeys with imported honey blends within the same variety, even the several times higher polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of Polish nectar honeys (p < 0.05) measured by FRAP method can be noticed.…”

Many imported honeys distributed on the Polish market compete with local products mainly by lower price, which can correspond to lower quality and widespread adulteration. The aim of the study was to compare honey samples (11 imported honey blends and 5 local honeys) based on their antioxidant activity (measured by DPPH, FRAP, and total phenolic content), protein profile obtained by native PAGE, soluble protein content, diastase, and acid phosphatase activities identified by zymography. These indicators were correlated with standard quality parameters (water, HMF, pH, free acidity, and electrical conductivity). It was found that raw local Polish honeys show higher antioxidant and enzymatic activity, as well as being more abundant in soluble protein. With the use of principal component analysis (PCA) and stepwise linear discriminant analysis (LDA) protein content and diastase number were found to be significant (p < 0.05) among all tested parameters to differentiate imported honey from raw local honeys.

“…On the other hand, antioxidant activity can serve simply as an indicator of the biological activity of honey measured in vitro. A higher antioxidant capacity determines better antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity of honey [ 21 , 22 ]. The data regarding the antioxidant properties of all analyzed honeys are shown in Table 2 .…”

“…Los valores de pH son similares a los estimados en mieles comerciales colombianas (Aguas et al, 2010;Méndez et al, 2010;Ortega-Bonilla et al, 2016;Salamanca et al, 2017) y en mieles multiflorales (Álvarez-Suárez et al, 2018;Ciulu et al, 2018;Đogo et al, 2020;Dżugan et al, 2020;Fernandes et al, 2020;Laaroussi et al, 2020;Sakač et al, 2019;Scholz et al, 2020). Al ser valores menores de 7,3, se consideran aceptables para evitar la proliferación de microorganismos (Sakač et al, 2019).…”

La producción de miel en Colombia es una actividad secundaria destinada principalmente al abastecimiento regional. A nivel nacional, el departamento del Cauca ocupa el séptimo lugar en producción de miel. La miel como alimento debe satisfacer las preferencias del consumidor y los criterios de calidad exigidos por la legislación para garantizar sus propiedades nutricionales y funcionales. Estas características se asocian a factores tales como origen botánico y geográfico, prácticas apícolas, entre otros. El origen geográfico de diferentes mieles se puede definir a partir de sus parámetros fisicoquímicos. En este trabajo se analizaron las características fisicoquímicas (acidez libre, pH, °Brix, cenizas, conductividad eléctrica, materia insoluble y humedad), el contenido de compuestos fenólicos totales (CFT), minerales, y el color (escala PFund y CIELab) de veinticuatro muestras de mieles comerciales adquiridas en seis municipios del departamento del Cauca (Colombia): Caldono, La Vega, Paispamba, Silvia, Timbío y Totoró. No todas las muestras cumplieron los requerimientos de la Norma Técnica Colombiana NTC-1273 para mieles florales, excepto las de Silvia, y alrededor del 20 % de las muestras mostró características de mieles de mielada. El color predominante en las mieles analizadas fue ámbar claro y ámbar, y se encontró una fuerte correlación entre los parámetros color expresado en mm PFund y CFT (r = 0,9229, p < 0,05). El análisis de componentes principales (ACP) permitió distinguir parcialmente las mieles de Paispamba, Silvia y Totoró a partir de sus parámetros fisicoquímicos y contenido mineral. Se sugiere el análisis de más muestras de miel para lograr una diferenciación por origen geográfico.

“…Generally, dark-colored honeys have been reported to possess high levels of these substances and, for example, buckwheat and heather honey are characteristically dark brown, almost black in color. These varieties of honey are often the richest sources of antioxidants, and can reduce ROS-induced oxidative stress [ 19 , 90 , 99 ]. There is usually a correlation between TPC, TFC, and AOA, but similar TPC and TFC content does not always correspond to similar antioxidant capacity [ 43 , 78 ].…”

Antioxidant Activity in Bee Products: A Review

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Bee products have been used since ancient times both for their nutritional value and for a broad spectrum of therapeutic purposes. They are deemed to be a potential source of natural antioxidants that can counteract the effects of oxidative stress underlying the pathogenesis of many diseases. In view of the growing interest in using bioactive substances from natural sources to promote health and reduce the risk of developing certain illnesses, this review aims to update the current state of knowledge on the antioxidant capacity of bee products such as honey, pollen, propolis, beeswax, royal jelly and bee venom, and on the analytical methods used. The complex, variable composition of these products and the multitude of analytical methods used to study their antioxidant activities are responsible for the wide range of results reported by a plethora of available studies. This suggests the need to establish standardized methods to more efficiently evaluate the intrinsic antioxidant characteristics of these products and make the data obtained more comparable.
