“…is 49.91± 21.36 mg GA equivalent/ 100 g. Moreover, Almeida da Silva et al (2013) reported that honey sample which displayed the highest total phenolic content have slightly highest ABTS + cation radical scavenging capacity. This result indicates that there is a correlation between phenolic content and antioxidant activity in the stingless bee's honey (Duarte et al, 2012;De Sousa et al, 2016).…”

“…Previous study showed that stingless bee honey can act as anti-inflammatory (Borsato et al, 2014), anticancer (Kustiawan et al, 2014;Yazan et al, 2016), antimicrobial (Miorin et al, 2003;Demera et al, 2004;Garedew et al, 2004;Temaru et al, 2007;Kimoto-Nira and Amano, 2008;Chanchao et al, 2009;Boorn et al, 2010;Rodríguez et al, 2012;Ilechie et al, 2012;Andualem, 2013;Ewnetu et al, 2013;Mercês et al, 2013;Queiroz et al, 2013;Zainol et al, 2013;Nobre da Cruz et al, 2014;Massaro et al, 2014;Zamora et al, 2014;Medeiros et al, 2016;De Sousa et al, 2016; and possessed antioxidant properties (Duarte et al, 2012;Almeida da Silva et al, 2013;De Sousa et al, 2016). However, the beneficial of stingless bee honey has been abandoned in modern medicine due to the paucity of systematic scientific studies for supporting its medical properties (Pe´rez et al, 2006).…”

“…The color of the honey is usually clearer, liquid and has a sweet and sour taste (Roowi et al, 2012). The recent studies showed that the stingless bee honey has the potential to treat colorectal cancer (Yazan et al, 2016), anti-inflammatory (Borsato et al, 2014), antimicrobial (Zainol et al, 2013;Nobre da Cruz et al, 2014;Massaro et al, 2014;Medeiros et al, 2016;De Sousa et al, 2016; and has an antioxidant property (Almeida Da Silva et al, 2013;Duarte et al, 2012).…”

Modern science has found that most traditional practice of using stingless bee honey has great potential as an added value in modern medicine and considered to have a higher medicinal value than other bee species. However, due to the relatively low output of honey compared to other honey so, focus on this honey is limited. Hence, this systematic review provides the updated result on the potential value of stingless bee honey as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxicity and antimicrobial. The search strategy was developed in four databases (Scopus, Medline and Ovid, EMBASE and PubMed) with the search terms "("honey" and "Kelulut", "honey" and "stingless bee", "honey" and "Trigona", "honey" and "pot honey", and "honey" and "Melipon")". The merged data was assessed using PRISMA guidelines and after the duplicates were removed, 1271 articles were segregated. Afterwards, 1232 articles were eliminated because they do not meet the inclusion criteria and 39 articles were reevaluated again for eligibility. Finally, after the evaluation process, only 26 of the articles were chosen for this review. The data of 26 articles of stingless bee honey were deliberated based on antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxicity and analysis of antimicrobial activity. Three articles reported on antioxidant properties, one article on anti-inflammatory analysis, two articles on cytotoxicity analysis, and twenty articles on analysis of antimicrobial activity. Based on the feasible affirmation from the literature, stingless bee honey has an antioxidant capacity that able to decrease the ROS. ROS able to lead a variety of health problems thus stingless bee honey can be a dietary supplement to overcome this problem.

The use of substances with antioxidant ability can be very important in the therapeutic prevention of diseases related to increased oxidative stress, such as cancer, heart disease and aging. Brazil has a great diversity of vegetation from which bees can collect resins. This study is a systematic bibliographical review on different electronic scientific databases through descriptors of antioxidant activity of bee products from Brazil. The identification of the articles and their inclusion occurred between the months January to MayW 2016. The bibliographic research was conducted in the following electronic databases: (1) Scientific electronic library online-SciELO; (2) Public library of science-PLOS Medicine; and (3) ScienceDirect. The articles selected were the ones that contained antioxidant activity evaluation of bee products from Brazil during 2011 and 2016. It was possible to observe a large number of articles published in this topic, but a compilation of data from all of these studies was necessary. Given there is a great diversity of vegetation in Brazil, a standardization process of the bee products in Brazil was conducted and by means of this process it was possible to draw a profile of the main antioxidants found in apiculture products in Brazil.

“…Ressalta-se que os exames microbiológicos são de fundamental importância para determinar a qualidade deste produto, tendo em vista o seu consumo humano para fins alimentícios e também medicinais, como já vem usado em atividades antimicrobianas e bioativas, segundo trabalhos recentes descrito por Sousa et al (2016) [7] e Osés et al (2015) [8], respectivamente. Dessa maneira, o presente trabalho investigou o perfil microbiológico, físico-químico e desenvolver estatística explicativa através das técnicas multivariadas (PCA e HCA) de méis obtidos do setor comercial dos municípios de Cachoeira do Ararí e Salvaterra, localizados no arquipélago do Marajó, Estado do Pará.…”

O mel é rico em monossacarídeos de glicose e frutose e vem sendo cada vez mais utilizado como alimento, medicamento e conservantes; tornando-se necessário definir padrões de qualidade para este produto. O presente trabalho investigou o perfil microbiológico e físico-químico de méis dos municípios de Cachoeira do Ararí, e Salvaterra -PA, afim de padronizar os dados através dos testes de componentes principais e de agrupamentos. Foram analisadas dez amostras, obtendo-se os valores médios para cinzas (0,38%), acidez livre (28,77 meq.kg-1), umidade (22,25%) e cor com predominante âmbar-escuro (60%). Para bolores e leveduras, 20% das amostras estavam em acordo com a legislação nacional. A aplicação da técnica multivariada (PCA) aos parâmetros físico-químicos teve variância total 87,73%, onde CP1 apresentou forte influência entre os parâmetros cor e cinzas e a CP2 expressou correlações entre acidez e umidade. Considerando a influência da discriminação geográfica dos municípios, a análise (HCA) apresentou dois grupos distintos por grau de similaridade, com a menor distância euclidiana para o grupo I. A aplicação da técnica multivariada (PCA) aos parâmetros microbiológicos demonstrou maior agrupamento para as amostras do município de Cachoeira do Ararí, comprovando a variância de 56,78% (CP1) de aspectos fidedignos de cada município. O dendograma (HCA) confirma os aspectos discutidos em scores e loadings. A partir desses resultados, percebe-se a importância das análises estatísticas para determinar padrões de qualidade do mel de regiões distintas, uma vez que vários fatores influenciam na obtenção e comercialização deste produto.Palavras-chave: Mel de abelha, Análises Microbiológicas, Análises Físico-químicas, técnicas multivariadas (PCA e HCA).Honey is rich in monosaccharides glucose and fructose and is being increasingly used as food, medicine, and preservatives, which makes it necessary to set standards for the quality of this product. The present work investigated the profile of the microbiological and physical-chemical honeys in the municipalities of Cachoeira do Ararí, and Salvaterra -PA, in order to standardize the data through the tests of main components and grouping. Were analyzed ten samples, obtaining the average values for ash (0.38%), free acidity (28,77 meq.kg-1), humidity (22.25%) and color with dominant amber-dark (60%). For yeasts and molds, 20% of the samples were in accordance with national legislation. The application of the multivariate technique (PCA) to the physical-chemical parameters had variance total 87.73%, where CP1 showed a strong influence between the parameters of color and ashes, the CP2 expressed correlations between acidity and moisture. Considering the influence of the geographical breakdown of the municipalities in the analysis (HCA) showed two distinct groups by degree of similarity, with the smallest distance to the group I. The application of the multivariate technique (PCA) to the microbiological criteria demonstrated a higher grouping for the samples in the municipality of Cach...
