Abstract

Propolis, one of the important products of honey bee, is gathered by bees from gum of various plants. The kinds of resinous plants are the most important factors on the QUALITY of PROPOLIS. Plantation of cypress trees is usual in IRAN, and also poplar plants have more expanded in all over the world. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to compare the effects of two kinds of plant sources (gymnosperms and ANGIOSPERMS) on QUANTITY and QUALITY of PROPOLIS. For this purpose, two areas with poplar (angiosperms) and cypress (gymnosperms) plantations were selected in Khojir and Telo located at near Tehran, IRAN respectively. The fiber plate method was used to collect the PROPOLIS in the colonies. Ten HONEYBEE colonies were placed in each area for 2.5 months in Autumn 2003; and 4 months in Spring 2004; The PROPOLIS was collected from the colonies at two weeks interval. The collected PROPOLIS of colonies was weighted. The antimicrobial activities of PROPOLIS samples were tested against Staphylococcus aureus to compare bioactivity of PROPOLIS. The highest amount of PROPOLIS in Khojir and Telo was 13.8 g and 12.3 g per hive for two weeks, respectively. The QUANTITY of PROPOLIS produced in Khojir was significantly higher than that of Telo (p<0.01). It is indicated that the presence of poplars trees near the hives could be effective to increase PROPOLIS production. The analysis of PROPOLIS collected in April 2004; are as follows: Telo: Balsam 62%, total phenolics 28% (by the Folin- Ciocalteu methods), total flavones and flavonols 7.3% (by the ALCL3 methods), total flavanones and dihydroflavonols 3.7% (by DNP methods). Khojir: Balsam 47%, total phenolics 21%, total flavones and flavonols 8.4%, total flavanones and dihydroflavonols 4.6%. The antibacterial activity of the Khojir PROPOLIS samples against Staphylococcus aureus (31.25 mgr/ml, MIC) was stronger than that of the Telo PROPOLIS samples (62.5 gr/ml, MIC). The results of our study indicated that the GYMNOSPERMS plants (poplar) and ANGIOSPERMS plants (cypress) have good QUALITY for PROPOLIS production, but poplar plants are better than latter (p<0.01).
