Who knows what raw material propolis is made of?

Propolis is a resin collected by bees from the buds, bark or trunks of trees, mixed with the secretions of glands such as tongue glands and wax glands of bees, and processed and transformed into a gelatinous substance by bees, generally yellow-brown, gray-brown or blue-green, the chemical composition is more complex, the main components are flavonoids, terpenes, organic acids, fragrant aldehydes and a variety of amino acids, enzymes, vitamins, minerals, etc., which have many health benefits for the human body, and because they are extremely rare, they are called "purple**".

Propolis is a gelatinous solid with an aromatic odor made by bees from the resin collected from plant spores or tree trunks and mixed with secretions from their palate glands and wax glands.

It is a yellow-brown or black-brown sticky substance secreted by bees and other bees to repair beehives, which can be used as medicine. Its nature is flat, bitter, pungent, slightly sweet, has the effect of emollient skin, anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving, and can be the best stomach ulcer, mouth ulcer, burn, crack, anti-radiation and other diseases.

Propolis is an extremely rare natural resource, known as "purple**", containing more than 300 kinds of nutrients in 20 categories. Among the components of propolis, the most representative active substances are quercetin in flavonoids, phenylethyl caffeic acid in terpenoids and organic acids. Quercetin is an active ingredient in many Chinese herbal medicines and has a wide range of physiological and pharmacological effects.

Quercetin, also known as rutin or rutin, has a vitamin P-like effect. Data show that quercetin has the effects of dilating coronary blood vessels, lowering blood lipids, antiplatelet coagulation, etc., and has a synergistic effect with aspirin. It can inhibit the release of endothelin by endothelial cells in different states to reduce the tension of blood vessels and provide a basis for preventing thromboembolism.

For many years, it has been mainly used clinically for capillary hemostatic drugs and adjuvant antihypertensive drugs. In addition to flavonoids, propolis also has aromatic volatile oils, terpenoids, organic acids, flavanols, alcohols, phenols, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, enzymes and inorganic salts, etc., propolis is like a natural "medicine storehouse".

Propolis collected from beehives usually contains 55% resin and tree incense, about 30% beeswax, 10% aromatic volatile oils, and 5% pollen and inclusions. After the 70s of the 20th century, relevant experts proved that the components of propolis are extremely complex, including flavonoids, acids, alcohols, phenols, aldehydes, esters, ethers, alkenes, terpenes, steroids and a variety of amino acids, fatty acids, enzymes, vitamins, and a variety of trace elements. --Encyclopedia (Propolis).

In summer and autumn, when the temperature is the highest, the sun will dry the resin and buds of poplars, birches, pines and cypresses and other longevity trees soft and sticky, at this time, the bees that specialize in collecting propolis will fly over, first secrete a liquid with special functions from the upper jaw, spray it on the surface of the resin, and soon the resin will become softer under the action of secretions, and then, they will use the palate and forefoot to tear off the gum little by little, chew in the mouth, so that the resin and secretions are fully fused. Only then did the gum be sent to the pollen basket on the hindfoot with the mid-foot.

Until the pollen basket is filled, it takes about an hour, and a bee can only pick back 10 20mg of gum at a time, after filling the pollen basket, these gum bees will fly back to the hive, but it can't unload it by itself, it must stand on the hive and wait for the unloading of the internal bees, the process of unloading propolis is very difficult, because the propolis is very sticky, it is not easy to take off, the two bees must hold the hive tightly with their feet, pull hard.

How to pull it? It is the bee bee that uses the upper jaw to bite the propolis off the pollen basket little by little, and then chews it in the mouth to fully fuse the resin and secretions, and then spit it out, and the whole unloading process even takes several hours.

Although the propolis at this time has been fused with three secretions and chewed twice, it is still a semi-finished product, and when the beehive is strengthened with propolis, it has to be chewed repeatedly to make it qualitatively change. The propolis we eat now is the propolis that has been scraped from the beehive and deeply processed by the bees.

Collecting propolis is a very important task for bees, so this difficult task is often done by experienced older bees. Generally, a group of 350,000 bees, only 25 40 are engaged in rubber harvesting, and only about 300 grams of resin can be collected a year, and these resins are processed by bees to make 450 grams of propolis, less than a catty.

Therefore, a group of 350,000 bees can only produce less than one pound of propolis a year, the yield is very rare, and of course, it is quite expensive. China is a big beekeeping country, but the annual output of crude rubber is only more than 300 tons. Therefore, propolis is an extremely precious bee product, so it has the reputation of "purple **".

Propolis is a gelatinous solid made of resin collected by bees, which is known as "purple" because of the scarcity and high cost, but the propolis collected from the beehive contains heavy metals such as arsenic and lead, and if it is not refined, it is easy to cause heavy metal poisoning due to excessive heavy metals.

First, the principle of refining.

The most mainstream technology of propolis refining is ethanol extraction and supercritical CO2 fluid extraction, but at home, ethanol extraction is generally used to refine propolis, the principle is that the active substances in propolis are soluble in 95% ethanol solution, while arsenic, lead and other heavy metals can not be dissolved in ethanol solution, so propolis can be soaked in ethanol and filtered and depressurized ** solvent can obtain purer propolis.

2. Frozen propolis.

Propolis is collected from the beehive and first frozen in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days, because the texture of the original propolis is soft and it is not easy to crush it into a fine form, and after freezing, the propolis can be changed from a sticky solid to a relatively hard solid, and then the propolis can be knocked into a fine powder with a hammer and other tools, and the advantage of this treatment is that the propolis can be dissolved in ethanol more quickly.

3. Immersion filtration.

After the propolis is crushed into a fine form, it is soaked in 5 times of 75% ethanol solution for 24 hours and then filtered out of the immersion solution, and then the propolis is soaked in 5 times of 85% ethanol solution and 5 times of 95% ethanol solution respectively, and finally the infusion obtained after three soaking is mixed together and filtered below 5, in fact, the active substances in the propolis are basically completely dissolved in the ethanol solution when the operation reaches this step.

Fourth, ** solvent.

Although most of the impurities have been removed after soaking and filtering in ethanol, propolis ethanol solution still contains a large number of harmful impurities, so it can only be used for trauma or disease and can not be taken internally.

Hello, I am your summer teacher, I am happy to serve you, I have seen your question, please do not ask again. I will reply to you as soon as possible, the manual answer is in the queue, the process is more crowded, please forgive you for the inconvenience, I will go all out, turn busy into motivation, and wholeheartedly provide you with a perfect answer. Please be patient

1. Put the obtained natural propolis blocks into the refrigerator at home for freezing, and then take them out after a day, put them on the panel, and use wooden sticks or other objects to mash the propolis blocks into pieces.

2. Prepare a clean glass bottle, put the processed propolis fines into the bottle, and then add alcohol, the ratio of alcohol to propolis is five to one, that is, 500 grams of alcohol should be added to 100 grams of propolis. After inserting, mix with chopsticks and seal it tightly.

3. Open the sealed propolis and alcohol every two to three days, mix it with chopsticks, and soak the propolis after about 15 days.

4. Pour the soaked propolis and alcohol into a piece of gauze, and filter it, so that a large part of the impurities in it can be dropped. Put the propolis liquid in a bottle and leave it quietly for a day, and then remove the cloudy part inside, and then the homemade propolis liquid is completed.

The methods of propolis production can be divided into direct scraping, covering cloth and taking glue, and dispensing with glue.

Direct scraping is to use a scraper to scrape propolis directly from the junction between the gauze cover and the box, the junction between the partition plate and the box, the junction between the nest frame and the box, and the gap between the box and other places where the glue storage is concentrated. The propolis collected in this way is of high purity***. There are also some propolis obtained from scraping directly from the sub-cover of the iron yarn, but due to the lead pollution in the iron yarn, the quality of the propolis produced is poor.

Before adding the cover cloth, add a few wooden strips to the frame beam, so that the cover cloth and the nest frame beam are kept at a distance of centimeters, so that the bees will spread the propolis on the cover cloth, every 2 weeks, take out the cover cloth, put it on a clean wooden board, let the sun dry the soft propolis, and scrape it with a knife. You can also put the cover cloth into the freezer or freezer of the refrigerator, freeze the propolis hard, and hit the frozen hard cover with a wooden stick, the propolis will break away from the cover cloth and collect it in a centralized manner, which is a better quality propolis. The cover cloth can be used again and again.

The glue extractor is to cover the grid type glue collector under the sub-cover on the nest frame, the bee fills the grid with propolis, and takes the glue dispenser out of the beehive at certain intervals for glue extraction. Harvested propolis can be sealed in food bags and stored in a cool, dry place for sale.

Propolis is produced by bees collecting resin and mixing secretions from the palate and wax glands.

1. Propolis is a natural resource with high nutritional value, which refers to the resin collected by bees from the trunk or plant spores, which is mixed with the secretions of beeswax glands and palate glands to process a gelatinous solid with aromatic odor.

2. Propolis is a gelatinous mixture with aromatic odor that bees collect from the bud, bark or trunk of plants, and mix it with its jaw gland secretions, beeswax acacia and a small amount of pollen.

1. Propolis liquid should be prepared with raw materials, that is, natural original propolis and 75 parts of edible alcohol (high wine can also prepare some white vinegar, and tools need a glass bottle with a large mouth and clean gauze.)

2. The best way to freeze the prepared pure natural propolis is to store it directly in the refrigerator in an oak or refrigerator, and take it out after five hours. Take out the frozen propolis and put it on the panel, and process it into fine powder for later use.

3. Mix the prepared alcohol and propolis powder in a five-to-one amount, and then put them together in a glass bottle prepared in advance, mix them well with chopsticks, and then store them in a cool place, and then stir them every three days, soak them for about 15 days.

4. After soaking the propolis, filter it with gauze to remove the juice inside, and then pour out the remaining residue. Then pour the removed liquid into a glass bottle.

5. Add white vinegar to the propolis liquid in a ratio of one to two, mix well after adding and then store it in a cool place for 24 hours, then you will find that some flocculent matter appears in the propolis liquid, in order to remove the flocculent can be filtered with gauze, and the final liquid obtained is the propolis liquid, which can be sealed and stored in the form of a wine bottle.
