The main objective of this study was to test comparatively the effects of two common insecticides on honey bee Apis mellifera worker’s lifespan, food consumption, mortality, and expression of antioxidant genes. Newly emerged worker bees were exposed to organophosphate insecticide coumaphos, a neonicot...
Note:honey bees are not a protected species. Do Not Spray the Bees Swarmingis an instinctive part of the annual life cycle of a honey bee colony. It provides a mechanism for the colony to reproduce itself. Honey bees in a swarm are generally gentle and not inclined to sting or attack un...
We performed a protein-protein interaction network and functional enrichment analysis of Toy usingD. melanogasteras the model species in the STRING database (version 12). With confidence of 0.4 as the lowest interaction score, 18 proteins were predicted to be interacted with Toy, including Ey, Ey...
In fact the tags produced by Alien Technology, a world leader in volume production of Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) products, were produced by Gilbert's team—the same team that placed the first RFID tag on a bee for us. Small and light, passive (2–3 mg) RF bee ...
2.2Processing of guava–pineapple jelly After pre-processing i.e. cooling, sorting and grading, guava–pineapple jelly was formulated according to the following treatments, calculation and process flow chart (Fig.1). Total weight of the product was 1758 g (1.758 kg). Percent of individual ingred...
According to the literature, honey’s physicochemical and biological properties are related to the botanical and geographical origins and bee species, as well as harvesting, processing, storage, and transport conditions [45]. The physicochemical parameter values for raw polyfloral honey (control) enrich...
(This article belongs to the Special IssueAntioxidant Activity of Honey Bee Products) Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to determine ¹H-NMR profiling and antioxidant activity of the most common types of honey, namely, citrus honey (HC1) (Morcott tangerineL. andJaffa orangeL.), ...
Figure 1. Flow chart of the various methods implemented in the analysis of honey and propolis samples. (A) Maceration of propolis, (A1) Honey samples, (B) extraction of pollen from propolis and honey (pollen analysis), (C) determination of the main vegetation species in propolis and macerati...
To our knowledge, replication of honey bee viruses in these cell lines has not been tested. Table 2. Permanent cell lines derived from hymenopteran species. The establishment of a continuous cell line from the honey bee has proven difficult, with only two continuous cell lines reported (...
