Abstract

Arı poleni, mineraller de dahil olmak üzere pek çok besin maddesi içermektedir. Elementler arı poleninde yer alan minör bileşenlerdendir ve polenin kalitesinin belirlenmesinde önemli parametrelerden biridir. Bir gıda takviyesi olarak, arı poleninin kalitesini ve güvenilirliğini belirlemek için, temel makro ve mikro elementlerin ve zararlı ağır metallerin konsantrasyonlarının saptanması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı botanik kaynaklardan elde edilen arı polenlerinin element içeriklerinin belirlenmesidir. Bu çalışmada, arı poleni örneklerinin botanik kökenlerini saptamak için melissopalinolojik analiz yapılmıştır. Daha sonra polen örneklerindeki 13 elementin konsantrasyonları, İndüktif Olarak Eşleştirilmiş Plazma Kütle Spektrometrisi (ICP-MS) ile ölçülmüştür. Örneklerde en yüksek konsantrasyonlu element potasyum (K)(8666.67-9623.33), ardından sırasıyla magnezyum (Mg) (808.33-673.33), sodyum (Na) (263.00-349.67), kalsiyum (Ca) (261.33-294), demir (Fe) (96.00-110), Zn (33.77-57.00), Manganez (Mn) (20.15-33.85), Bakır (Cu) (5.27-9.60), Nikel (Ni) (1.13-2.48), Krom (Cr) (1.95-2.20), Selenyum (Se) (0.72-1.03) ve Kobalt (Co) (0-008) mg kg-1 olarak bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlarla arı polenlerinin tehlike oranı (THQ), tehlike indeksi (HI) ve önerilen günlük tüketim değerleri (RDA) hesaplanmıştır. THQ değerlerine bakıldığında arı poleni tüketiminin yetişkinler için güvenli olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ancak polen tüketimi çocuklar için uygun bulunmamıştır. Bu çalışma sonucunda, arı poleninin temel elementler olan K, Mg, Na, Ca, Se, Mn, Fe, Cr ve Cu açısından da iyi bir mineral kaynağı olabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Abstract

Bee pollen contains many nutrients, including minerals. Elements are minor substances of bee pollen, they play a crucial role in identifying its quality. As a food supplement, concentrations of essential macro and microelements, and harmful trace elements have to be verified to determine its quality and safety. This study aimed to identify the element contents of bee pollens from different botanic sources. Firstly, we applied melissopalynological analysis to find the botanical origins of bee pollen samples. Then, it was determined the concentrations of 13 elements in the samples. Element concentration was measured by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Potassium (K) occurred at the highest concentrations in samples (8666.67-9623.33), followed by magnesium (Mg) (808.08-672.08), sodium (Na) (263.00-349.67), calcium (Ca) (261.33-294), iron (Fe) (96.00-110), Zn (33.77-57.00), Manganese (Mn) (20.15-33.85), Copper (Cu) (5.27-9.60), Nickel (Ni) (1.13-2.48), Chromium (Cr) (1.95-2.20), Selenium (Se) (0.72-1.03) and Cobalt (Co) (0-008) respectively as mg kg-1. Target hazard quotients (THQ), hazard index (HI), and recommended daily allowance (RDA) values were calculated with these results. Considering the THQ values, it was determined that the consumption of bee pollen was safe for adults, but not suitable for consumption by children. At the same time it was concluded from this study that bee pollen can be a good mineral source in terms of essential elements, K, Mg, Se, Mn, Na, Ca, Fe, Cu., and Cr
