Determination of biologically active phenolic compounds in propolis by LC–MS/MS according to seasons and altitudes

The present study aimed to determine the effect of season and altitude to amount and prevalence of phenolic compounds in propolis. For the aim, 174 propolis samples were collected from 58 stationary apiaries from altitudes of 0–200 m, 200–500 m and above 500 m in spring, summer, and autumn distribut...

Zusammenfassung:The present study aimed to determine the effect of season and altitude to amount and prevalence of phenolic compounds in propolis. For the aim, 174 propolis samples were collected from 58 stationary apiaries from altitudes of 0–200 m, 200–500 m and above 500 m in spring, summer, and autumn distributed in the Marmara region of Turkey. Ethanol-extracted propolis samples were analyzed by LC–MS/MS to determine nine flavonoids and seven phenolic acids. Significant differences were found in average levels of galangin, naringenin, pinocembrin, quercetin, luteolin, caffeic acid, trans-cinnamic acid, p-coumaric acid, m-coumaric acid, and CAPE across the seasons and altitudes (P
