- Abstract
In recent years, consumer consciousness towards healthy nutrition has increased consumer demand for natural foods. Customer demand for foods produced by natural additives has stimulated researches on natural materials that are alternative to synthetic materials in food production. Among these natural products, bee products are extensively used. Bee products have been used to cure several illnesses. Propolis is one of the little known bee products and has become an important ingredient in food industry. Its importance comes mainly from its chemical composition and biological activities like antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticarcinogenic effects. There are favorable researches in food science and technology related with the antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties of propolis in the field of food preservation as an alternative to chemical preservatives. In this study, studies about propolis as an alternative food additive in food industry are reviewed.
