BEE POLLEN: ITS ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY

Abstract

Bee pollen is a honey bee product containing over 250 biologically active substances such as phenolic bases, amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, enzymes and coenzymes, vitamins and bio-elements. The composition of bee pollen may vary due to plant sources and its botanical and geographical origin. Bee pollen has been used since ancient times in traditional medicine for its therapeutic effects such as wound healing and hepatoprotective. Bee pollen has been reported to possess antioxidant and radical scavenging activities usually attributed to the presence of phenolic acids and flavonoids which are plant-derived polyphenolic substances. The antioxidant capacity of bee pollen depends on the content of total polyphenolic substances. This review presents an overview of chemical composition and antioxidant activity of bee pollen.

Arı Poleni: Antioksidan Etkisi

Abstract

Arı poleni fenolik bazlar, amino asitler, karbonhidratlar, lipitler, enzimler ve koenzimler, vitaminler ve biyo-elementler gibi 250'den fazla biyolojik olarak aktif madde içeren bir arı ürünüdür. Polen bileşimi polenin bitkisel kaynağına, botanik ve coğrafi kökenine göre değişebilir. Arı poleni, yara iyileştirici ve karaciğer koruyucu gibi etkileri nedeniyle geleneksel tıpta eski çağlardan beri kullanılmaktadır. Arı poleninin, genellikle bitkilerden elde edilen polifenolik maddeler olan fenolik asitlerin ve flavonoidlerin varlığına atfedilen antioksidan ve radikal temizleme aktivitelerine sahip olduğu bildirilmiştir. Antioksidan kapasitesi, toplam polifenolik maddelerin içeriğine bağlıdır. Bu derleme arı poleninin kimyasal bileşimi ve antioksidan aktivitesine genel bir bakış sunmaktadır.
