Electrochemical Sensor Based on Beeswax and Carbon Black Thin Biofilms for Determination of Paraquat in Apis mellifera Honey
(2021-03-01)
The development of new materials for electrochemical sensors has been received attention due to the search for sustainability. However, the use of in natura materials from vegetable and animal origin is still little explored ...
Effect of adding curcumin on the properties of linseed oil organogels used as fat replacers in pâtés
(MDPI, 2020)
Beeswax-based organogels were formulated with linseed oil and curcumin according to a statistical design to increase the oxidative stability of spreadable meat products (pate) where these organogels (OGCur) were incorporated ...
Effect of Adding Curcumin on the Properties of Linseed Oil Organogels Used as Fat Replacers in Pates
(MDPI, 2020)
Beeswax-based organogels were formulated with linseed oil and curcumin according to a statistical design to increase the oxidative stability of spreadable meat products (pate) where these organogels (OGCur) were incorporated ...
Use of beeswax as an alternative binder in the development of composite electrodes: an approach for determination of hydrogen peroxide in honey samples
(2021-09-10)
The present paper describes a new way to construct composite electrodes by using beeswax as an alternative binder and graphite powder as the conductive phase. Beeswax can be an attractive binder since it is a biodegradable ...
Suitable areas for apiculture expansion determined by antioxidant power, chemical profiles, and pesticide residues in caldcluvia paniculata honey and beeswax samples
(MDPI, 2022)
Simple Summary Honey is biologically desirable for antioxidant powers and antiradical capacities. However, pesticide use in farming means that any nearby beehives might become contaminated with undesirable and often harmful ...
Essential Oils in Beeswax Production by Apis mellifera
(2016-10-02)
This research evaluated beeswax production by Africanized honeybees, using essential oils: citronella, eucalyptus, lemongrass and fennel. The sheets of beeswax received 0.5 ml of each oil, on both sides, and placed in the ...
Effect of slow-release urea microencapsulated in beeswax and its inclusion in ruminant diets
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-10-01)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of including slow-release urea microencapsulated in beeswax in the diet of adult sheep on intake, digestibility, and nitrogen (N) balance. Two microencapsulated system ...
Effect of freezing on physical properties of whey protein emulsion films
(Elsevier, 2013-06)
The objective of this work was to study the effect of the freezing process on physical properties of whey protein emulsion films with different beeswax content dried at 5 ºC. Thickness, microstructure, water vapour ...
Desenvolvimento de filmes de amido incorporados com cera de abelha por casting contínuo
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ciência e Engenharia de Materiais - PPGCEMCâmpus São Carlos, 2019-08-09)
Starch films appear as an alternative to problematic non-biodegradable plastic films; however, they have low water resistance and require the addition of a hydrophobic component to be viable substitutes for non-biodegradable ...
