Propolis extract is a resinous mixture collected by bees, rich in propolis flavonoids. It undergoes ethanol extraction to isolate bioactive compounds. Key constituents include pinocembrin and galangin; specific molecular formulas vary by source, and CAS numbers are typically assigned to individual flavonoids rather than the bulk extract.
Avoid use in individuals with bee product allergies. Store in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight to prevent oxidation of sensitive flavonoid structures. Industrial handling requires PPE to avoid respiratory sensitization.
