Recent studies on tropical samples, especially Brazilian, lead to the discovery of new antibacterial compounds. A number of them are phenolics and their derivatives, although completely different from those found in European propolis. The most important ones are carbon-prenylated derivatives of p-coumaric acid, the 3,5-diprenyl-p-coumaric acid being one of the major antibacterial compounds in Brazilian propolis (Aga et al., 1994).

In countries of temperate climate from Europe and North America, the vegetables producing propolis are very few. The poplar, Populus L., of the family of Salicaceae is the main source. This vegetal species still can be found in Asia and North Africa. However, it is not regular in the tropics. There are several species in Brazil from which we can extract this resin. However, few species were identified so far, but roast-fish, aroeira, rosemary and eucalyptus are some examples of vegetables that produce propolis.

Intensive researches performed in the Brazilian Green Propolis reveal that these compounds are the agents for its several physiologic actions: anti-microbe (it works as a natural antibiotic), anti-inflammatory, healing, anesthetic, antioxidant (it combats free radicals), anti-fungal, anti protozoa, antiviral and also anticancer. Uniflora Propolis Extracts are made with 100% Brazilian Green Propolis highly concentrated (considered one of the best in the world), obtained from controlled raw propolis, collected in areas free of contamination, using equipment developed to maximize the extraction process.

Uniflora has a staff with full knowledge and equipments highly necessary to accomplish the manipulation and the quality control of our propolis extracts. In this way, we can guarantee that the high properties of the propolis are not being harmed or wasted.
