Scientific Study from the year 2017 in the subject Medicine - Pharmacology, Mansoura University (Faculty of Pharmacy), language: English, abstract: The study includes measurement of bee activity in collecting and producing honey, propolis and bee venom according to bee race, in a comparative study between Carniolan hybrid and Italian hybrid. For one year and study of some biological and chemical properties of some bee products (Honey, propolis and bee venom) and their effects on three types of cancer cells (Hep-G2, Caco-2 and MCF-7) in a comparative study with the effort of two drugs (5Fu and Cis-pt) in different concentrations. The study dealt with the following points: 1. Activity honeybee in collecting and producing honey, propolis and bee venom according to bee race. 2. Biological properties of some bee products and their effects on some cancer cells. 3. Chemical properties of some bee products. Apitherapy is the art and science of making therapeutic use of products of honey bee, including honey, bee pollen, propolis, royal jelly, bees wax and bee venom. apitherapy is defined as api, meaning bee and therapy from the greek word therapia, which literally means "curing" or "healing". apitherapy is healing by using bee products. hippocrates, the greek physician known as the "father of medicine", recognized the hialing virtues of bee venom for treating arthritis and other joint problems. Since the ancient egyptians, cultures across the ages have revered the honey bee for its healing powers. Integrative medical apitherapy is the application of bee products like honey, pollen, royal jelly and propolis in healing therapies. apitherapy is an ancient alternative healing modality dating back several thousand years and used by hippocrates, mentioned by plato, and others throughout our history.
