Propolis Extract is a complex resinous substance harvested by bees from plant exudates, typically a dark brown viscous liquid or powder rich in polyphenols, terpenoids, and aromatic acids. Ethanol-soluble with antimicrobial and antioxidant profiles, it varies in composition based on geographic origin for tailored bioactivity.

Propolis Extract

Integrated in immune-modulating nutraceuticals; in natural preservatives for cosmetics; in dental sealants for cavity prevention; in throat lozenges for soothing; and in agricultural biopesticides for crop protection against pathogens.

Potential for contact allergies in bee-sensitive individuals; mild hepatotoxicity in high doses. Test for propolis-specific sensitivities; dilute extracts and avoid immunocompromised formulations per quality assurance.

Poured into 5 kg amber glass carboys with phenolic caps for light blocking. Refrigerate in allergen-controlled zones to sustain potency.
