Abstract

Bee pollen is a beehive product obtained by honeybees from gat hering millions of floral pollen grains and mixing it with plant necta r and bee saliva. Several laboratory techniques are used to prepare pollen grains for microscope observ ation and identification. Floral origin of ten bee pollen samples was identified by palynological anal ysis without acetolysis followed by microscopy and comparison with a library of samples. Reference pollen collection from collected flowers and different pollen guides were used for the recogniti on of the pollen type
