Abstract Bee pollen has gained increased interest in recent decades due to its therapeutic, antioxidant, antifungal and anticariogenic properties, as well as its potential use as a functional food product in the food industry because of its nutritional properties. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the chemical components of pollen extracts with different botanical origin, supporting the hypothesis that bee products inherit the characteristics and bioactive properties from the plants they come from. The purpose of this study was to conduct a chemical characterization of samples of pollen collected by Apis mellifera L. from plants native to central Chile, and also… More >
