Abstract


The aim of this work was to investigate the organic proprieties in different kinds of ethanolic extracts directly from the market and prepared from raw propolis. The raw propolis was obtained by scraping it from the hives (type 1) and by using a collector to obtain it in strips (type 2). The analysis of phenolic and flavonoid contents was performed, and the oxidative index was obtained. The raw propolis obtained in cities of Southeastern Brazil presented a balsamic aroma, a dark green brownish color was predominant and the consistency was hard or malleable; its origin is from wild flora. Our study pointed out the high variation with on the organic value of propolis, which is a barrier to define a pattern from different types. Type 1 propolis, the easiest to collect, needs some care in good practices, and the commercial extracts need quality control.


Keywords: Apis mellifera, beekeeping, quality control, management.
