Bee wax
Waxes for bees are made
by special wax glands located on the underside of the abdomen.
The melting point of
the wax is 69-72 ° C.
Propolis and some types
of pollen give color to waxes. Waxes can be yellow, white, red and even black.
In medicine, waxes are useful
as a base for many pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations - various creams,
patches and ointments. Wax is also a part of healing candles.
