The mandibular gland secretion of Melipona beecheii contains a rich mixture of terpenoid and oxygenated compounds and unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbons.

The most abundant compound was geranyl hexanoate, whereas the most volatile compounds were cis- and trans-rose oxide and geraniol.

Vitamin E usually works as a biological antioxidant, preventing the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and proteins, for which it is considered an important protective factor in the development of diseases related to oxidative processes. Beyond its antioxidant properties, it has been involved also in genetic expression, mitochondrial metabolism, cell differentiation and immune system regulation. From the point of view of its antioxidant protection properties, values > or = 1200-1300 micrograms/dL are considered optimum levels (standardized according to plasmatic lipid levels).
