    • An insight into the antibiofilm properties of Costa Rican stingless bee honeys 

      Zamora, Luis; Beukelman, Kees; van den Berg, Arjen; Aerts, P.C.; Quarles van Ufford, H.C.; Nijland, R.; Arias, M.L. (Journal of Wound Care, 2017-04-05)
      Our objective is to examine the the antibiofilm properties of stingless bee honeys. Meliponini honeys from Costa Rica were examined along with Medihoney as a reference. All honeys were submitted to a screening composed of ...

    • Asociación entre abejas sin aguijón (Apidae, Meliponini) y la flora del bosque seco en la región norte de Guanacaste, Costa Rica 

      Barquero-Elizondo, Ana Isabel; Aguilar-Monge, Ingrid; Méndez-Cartín, Ana Lucía; Hernández-Sánchez, Gustavo; Sánchez-Toruño, Henry; Montero-Flores, William; Herrera-González, Eduardo; Sánchez-Chaves, Luis Alejandro; Barrantes-Vásquez, Alejandra; Gutiérrez-Leitón, Milena; Mesén-Montano, Isaac; Bullé-Bueno, Francisco (Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2019-01-01)
      Las abejas sin aguijón son importantes polinizadores en regiones tropicales y subtropicales; están asociadas a la flora que les proporciona alimento, sitios para anidamiento, resinas, savia y exudados. Se buscó determinar ...

    • Learnt information in species-specific ‘trail pheromone’ communication in stingless bees 

      Reichle, Christian; Aguilar Monge, Ingrid; Ayasse, Manfred; Twele, Robert; Francke, Wittko; Jarau, Stefan (Elsevier, 2013)
      Specificity in biological signalling systems is often important to keep information private. Foragers of several species of stingless bees deposit chemical marking signals to guide nestmates to food sources. The markings ...

    • Nest-specific composition of the trail pheromone of the stingless bee Trigona corvina within populations 

      John, Lena; Aguilar, Ingrid; Ayasse, Manfredo; Jarau, Stefan (Springer, 2012)
      Social insects have evolved highly developed communication systems, enabling them to coordinate complex interactions in their colonies. Pheromones play a major role in the coordination of many tasks. In Trigona corvina, a ...

    • Physicochemical differentiation of stingless bee honeys from Costa Rica 

      Umaña, Eduardo; Zamora, Gabriel; Aguilar, Ingrid; Pérez-Salazar, Roy; Solórzano, Rebeca; Herrera, Eduardo; Arias, Maria Laura; Sanchez, Luis Angel (Taylor and Francis Group, 2021-04-06)
      We characterized Tetragonisca angustula and Melipona beecheii honeys produced in Costa Rica according to their physical and chemical properties. Moreover, we found critical parameters that distinguish the honeys from each ...

    • The antimicrobial activity and microbiological safety of stingless bee honeys from Costa Rica 

      Zamora Fallas, Gabriel; Beukelman, Kees; van den Berg, Bert; Arias Echandi, María Luisa; Umaña Rojas, Eduardo; Aguilar Monge, Ingrid; Sánchez Chávez, Luis Alejandro; Fallas Matamoros, Natalia; Quarles van Ufford, Linda; Gross, Norma (International Bee Research AssociationTaylor and Francis, 2014)
      Stingless bee honeys from Costa Rica possess etnopharmacological value mainly as a wound dressing. The microbiological study by APHA methods reported that 83 % of the honeys analysed had microbial counts that comply with ...
