Microbiological and physical-chemical characteristics of pollen and honey from stingless bees: a review
Abstract The physical, chemical and sensory characteristics of pollen and honey from stingless bees (SLB) are quite different when compared to those produced by Apis mellifera. Meliponine honey has a high moisture content (23–37.5%); reducing sugars (12.65–77.11%); and total acidity (11.23 to 124.2...
