Abstract
The study was conducted to investigate the effect of propolis on the increase of the immunity of honeybee bees by gradually administering the bees' propolis to bees. 0.16% and 0.3% 0.6% Propolis were administered at intervals of 2 weeks for 2 months, respectively, and 16 kinds of representative diseases of bees were tested. As a result, less bee disease was observed directly in the 0.3% propolis-administered group. In the next year, bees and a newborn bee showed a decrease in the incidence of bee disease and American foulbrood in bees administered with propolis. Based on the results of these studies, it was confirmed that propolis administration in bees helps to enhance immunity of bees and is effective in controlling American foulbrood.
