DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION

Preparado alimenticio para colmenas reconstituible in-situ mediante adición de aguaFood preparation for hives reconstitutable in-situ by adding water

Campo técnico de la invenciónTechnical field of the invention

La presente invención pertenece al sector de la apicultura, en particular, se refiere a un preparado reconstituible in-situ mediante adición de agua para preparar un alimento en forma de jarabe de azúcar invertido con vitaminas para colonias de abejas y así estimular a la colmena antes de la floración primaveral.The present invention belongs to the beekeeping sector, in particular, it refers to a preparation reconstitutable in-situ by adding water to prepare a food in the form of invert sugar syrup with vitamins for bee colonies and thus stimulate the hive before of spring flowering.

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

El jarabe de azúcar invertido está muy extendido en el sector apícola por su efecto estimulante sobre las colmenas antes de la floración primaveral. Su composición en azúcares simples como glucosa, fructosa y sacarosa y su textura en forma de jarabe simulan la entrada de néctar a la colmena, hecho que incrementa la puesta por parte de la reina, preparando la colmena para la época de floración.Invert sugar syrup is widely used in the beekeeping sector for its stimulating effect on hives before spring flowering. Its composition of simple sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose and its syrup-like texture simulate the entry of nectar into the hive, a fact that increases laying by the queen, preparing the hive for the flowering season.

El jarabe de azúcar invertido es un alimento más fácilmente asimilable para las abejas que los jarabes con azúcar normal (sacarosa). El empleo de enzimas (invertasas) para la elaboración de jarabes de azúcar invertido a partir de sacarosa es la forma habitual de proporcionar un alimento adicional para las colmenas de abejas, de cara a estimular la actividad de la colonia antes de la floración primaveral. Esto se debe a que el jarabe producido de forma enzimática tiene un bajo contenido en hidroximetilfurfural (HMF), que es tóxico para las abejas, mientras que, si se prepara un jarabe de azúcar invertido a partir de sacarosa mediante calentamiento, el contenido de HMF es elevado y puede perjudicar a las abejas y a la calidad de la miel producida. El HMF se forma como resultado de la exposición al calor de la fructosa en presencia de un pH ácido y es tóxico tanto para humanos como para abejas. Hay datos bibliográficos de toxicidad para abejas enjauladas en laboratorio a partir de unos 50 mg/kg de HMF, aunque las cifras más realistas son a partir de 150 mg/kg.Invert sugar syrup is a more easily assimilated food for bees than syrups with normal sugar (sucrose). The use of enzymes (invertases) to prepare invert sugar syrups from sucrose is the usual way of providing additional food for bee hives, in order to stimulate colony activity before spring flowering. This is because the enzymatically produced syrup has a low content of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), which is toxic to bees, whereas, if an invert sugar syrup is prepared from sucrose by heating, the HMF content is high and can harm the bees and the quality of the honey produced. HMF is formed as a result of exposure to heat from fructose in the presence of an acidic pH and is toxic to both humans and humans. as for bees. There is bibliographic data on toxicity for caged bees in the laboratory starting at about 50 mg/kg of HMF, although the most realistic figures are starting at 150 mg/kg.

El jarabe de azúcar invertido para abejas puede ser opcionalmente suplementado con vitaminas para potenciar su función nutritiva. El jarabe de azúcar invertido enzimático con vitaminas se comercializa actualmente utilizando diferentes formatos que van desde la barqueta de 1 kg lista para consumir, hasta el formato a granel suministrado en cisterna. Sin embargo, el transporte a grandes distancias de este producto en formato jarabe se hace inviable económicamente por su alto contenido en agua (33%), su fragilidad en el envase y su corta vida útil.Invert sugar syrup for bees can be optionally supplemented with vitamins to enhance its nutritional function. Enzymatic invert sugar syrup with vitamins is currently marketed using different formats ranging from the 1 kg container ready to consume, to the bulk format supplied in a tanker. However, transporting this product over long distances in syrup format becomes economically unfeasible due to its high water content (33%), its fragility in the packaging and its short useful life.

Descripción resumida de la invenciónSummary description of the invention

Un primer aspecto de la invención aporta un preparado alimenticio para abejas que comprende azúcar y enzima invertasa y está caracterizado porque comprende un aditivo conservante y dicho preparado alimenticio está en estado sólido y pulverulento.A first aspect of the invention provides a food preparation for bees that comprises sugar and invertase enzyme and is characterized in that it comprises a preservative additive and said food preparation is in a solid and powdery state.

Un preparado alimenticio para abejas como el descrito anteriormente es mucho más conveniente para ser comercializado a grandes distancias, por ejemplo, para su exportación a países donde hay escasez de alimento apícola, ya que se evita el transporte de agua, si el alimento para abejas se tuviera que transportar en forma de jarabe. Este formato de preparado alimenticio para abejas en polvo permite rentabilizar el transporte a largas distancias, incrementar la vida útil del producto y facilitar la planificación del apicultor en relación a la alimentación de sus colmenas.A bee food preparation such as the one described above is much more convenient to be marketed over long distances, for example, for export to countries where there is a shortage of bee food, since the transport of water is avoided, if the bee food is had to be transported in syrup form. This format of powdered bee food preparation makes long-distance transport profitable, increases the useful life of the product and facilitates the beekeeper's planning in relation to feeding their hives.

Con este preparado alimenticio para abejas en polvo, los apicultores pueden preparar un jarabe de azúcar invertido de alimento para las abejas simplemente mediante la adición de agua al preparado alimenticio en polvo, lo que se puede llevar a cabo en el mismo lugar donde están ubicadas las colmenas. With this powdered bee food preparation, beekeepers can prepare bee food invert sugar syrup simply by adding water to the powdered food preparation, which can be carried out in the same place where the bees are located. hives.

Un preparado alimenticio para abejas como se describe anteriormente es también más fácil de almacenar y manipular, ya que ocupa menos espacio que una cantidad equivalente de jarabe, es decir, con la misma cantidad de alimento.A bee food preparation as described above is also easier to store and handle, since it takes up less space than an equivalent amount of syrup, that is, with the same amount of food.

Durante el almacenamiento del preparado alimenticio, el aditivo conservante no cumple ninguna función, ya que el azúcar invertido en polvo no es atacado por microorganismos. Sin embargo, el aditivo conservante tiene como función impedir o, al menos reducir, la formación y proliferación de microorganismos en el jarabe, una vez que el preparado alimenticio ya ha sido reconstituido con agua.During the storage of the food preparation, the preservative additive does not play any role, since the powdered invert sugar is not attacked by microorganisms. However, the function of the preservative additive is to prevent or, at least, reduce the formation and proliferation of microorganisms in the syrup, once the food preparation has already been reconstituted with water.

Preferiblemente el preparado alimenticio para abejas comprende un complemento de vitaminas para las abejas. Si el preparado alimenticio en polvo ya lleva un suplemento de vitaminas, el apicultor no necesita añadirlas a la hora de reconstituir el preparado alimenticio para hacer el jarabe.Preferably the bee food preparation comprises a vitamin supplement for the bees. If the powdered food preparation already contains a vitamin supplement, the beekeeper does not need to add them when reconstituting the food preparation to make the syrup.

Preferiblemente el complemento de vitaminas comprende las vitaminas más importantes para el desarrollo de las abejas como son las del grupo B (B1, B2, B3, B5 y B6) y las vitaminas C, A y K1.Preferably, the vitamin supplement includes the most important vitamins for the development of bees, such as group B (B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6) and vitamins C, A and K1.

Preferiblemente el aditivo conservante comprende sorbato potásico.Preferably the preservative additive comprises potassium sorbate.
