Quality indicators of compositions from drone brood and royal jelly

Abstract

The purpose of the work was to compare two technological methods for preparing a combined product from royal jelly and drone brood. Methodology. The research was carried out at the Federal Scientific Center for Beekeeping. The material for the research was dry adsorbed drone brood, dried adsorbed royal jelly, compositions of royal jelly and drone brood prepared in two ways. The first method was the joint adsorption of royal jelly and drone brood, and the second was separate adsorption and drying followed by joint dry granulation of the components. The data obtained show that the differences in the physicochemical parameters of the products obtained by different methods are insignificant. The composition has intermediate values of physicochemical parameters between drone brood and royal jelly.
