The composition of honey is very diverse and depends on the type of honey and the region of origin. Bioactive compounds in honey including phenolics and flavonoids cause honey to having antioxidant activity. This study aims to identify honey bees, determine the chemical properties of honey based on the parameters of water content, acidity, and reducing sugar, and analyze the antioxidant activity and phenolic and flavonoid content of honey from Bukit Tiga Puluh National Park Riau and Prabumulih South Sumatra. The research using descriptive method were morphological identification of bees, testing parameters of honey bee chemical properties, DPPH antioxidant test to obtain IC 50 (Inhibition consenteration) values, total phenolic and flavonoid levels. The identified bees are Apis mellifera (from Riau) and A. dorsata (from Prabumulih). This essay showed that the determination of water content, acidity, reducing sugar, both honeys fulfill SNI 8664:2018 except the reducing sugar of A. dorsata honey bee. A. dorsata honey bee has antioxidant activity higher IC 50 value (590 mg/L) than A. mellifera honey (678 mg/L). Total phenolic (TPC) and flavonoid (TFC) of A. mellifera honey were 7.51 mg GAE/g and 0.06 mg QE/g, respectively higher than A. dorsata honey bee (3.35 mg GAE/g and 0.42 mg QE/g).","PeriodicalId":9003,"journal":{"name":"BioScience","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139308014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I organize and explain this diversity by addressing five questions. What does it mean to predict something? To answer this question, I describe concepts of prediction as prophecy, diagnosis, history, repeatability, and fate. What are we trying to predict? Here, I describe how predictions vary along several axes: general to specific, qualitative to quantitative, relative to absolute, point to range, and continuous to discontinuous. Where do predictions come from? In this case, I focus on deductive versus inductive reasoning. How do we test predictions? The answer here is not straightforward and I discuss various approaches and difficulties. How good are predictions? Not surprisingly, it depends on what is being predicted and how we judge success. Importantly, I do not espouse a “best” way to approach prediction but, rather, I outline its diverse manifestations so as to help organize practical thinking on the topic.","PeriodicalId":9003,"journal":{"name":"BioScience","volume":"14 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136318333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This relentless pattern undermines the capacity to protect the environment from pesticide hazards and frustrates end users that need pest management tools. Wild pollinating insects are in decline, and managed pollinators such as honey bees are experiencing excessive losses, which threatens sustainable food security and ecosystem function. An increasing number of studies demonstrate the negative effects of field-realistic exposure to pesticides on pollinator health and fitness, which contribute to pollinator declines. Current pesticide approval processes, although they are superior to past practices, clearly continue to fail to protect pollinator health. In the present article, we provide a conceptual framework to reform cyclical pesticide approval processes and better protect pollinators.","PeriodicalId":9003,"journal":{"name":"BioScience","volume":"168 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135367319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
