Abstract:
Propolis is a resinous material produced by bees from the selective collection of plant exudates that are subsequently mixed with bee’s wax and salivary bee secretions. Propolis has been used in folk medicine, and certainly, several studies have validated its biological properties. The chemical composition and pharmacological activities of Propolis collected around urban land scape of Bangalore and have been studied in 2018-2019, There are remarkable differences in the biological activities of Propolis from dissimilar geographical origin, and those mainly depend on the qualitative and quantitative variations of its characteristic chemical constituents, which are provided by botanical sources. Herein, we investigated pharmacological potentials Propolis in urban landscapes.
