Summary, etc. |
<p style="text-align: justify;">Propolis is a bee product with various biological activities and phytochemical compositions. This study was aimed to identify the chemical composition and botanical origin of Indonesian stingless bees propolis produced by <em>Tetragonula laeviceps </em>in Banten and <em>Heterotrigona itama </em>in South Kalimantan, respectively. Propolis extracts were prepared using 70% ethanol and chloroform. The extracts were analysed by GC/MS after silylation. The results showed that the studied stingless bee propolis contained a relatively high amount of sugars, probably due to the harvesting method used. Furthermore, triterpenes were found as the main constituents followed by phenolic lipids. Both samples were <em>Mangifera indica </em>type propolis with typical compounds, including cycloartenol, isomangiferolic acid, mangiferolic acid, ambolic acid, alk(en)ylphenols, alk(en)ylresorcinols, and anacardic acids. Therefore, <em>M. indica </em>might be a preferred botanical source of propolis from a tropical zone. In addition, the suctioning method in harvesting the stingless bee honey could be recommended to avoid high content of sugar and sugar derivatives.</p> |
