Study of stingless bee (Heterotrigona itama) propolis using LC-MS/ MS and TGA-FTIR. Applied Food Research, 3 (1). pp. 1-10. ISSN 2772-5022 (2022)
Abstract
Propolis, especially meliponini propolis is getting more popular in the functional food market, mainly due to its pharmacological importance. The quality of propolis is largely dependent upon the extraction technology and its solvent system. The present study investigated the performance of propolis extraction from maceration with and without ultrasonic pretreatment (30 min) in both water and 20% ethanol systems. Maceration was chosen to avoid degradation of heat sensitive compounds. Ultrasonic pretreatment was introduced to enhance propolis extraction from recalcitrant raw material. The yield of propolis was 4.0-5.5%.
