Abstract(s)
This work outlines a characterization of the phenolic composition of the Azorean islands propolis. For that, eleven samples from S. Miguel and Terceira islands, were extracted and characterized.
According to the I-IPLC analysis, an samples showed a similar phenolic profile, with 37 compounds
identified by ESI-MS analysis and UV spectra. Although the samples revealed a close phenolic
composition, significant differences were found in their concentrations, probably due to variations in flora
distribution around the beehive, and therefore, in resin availability for bees.
