Few studies were performed on the volatile components' properties of propolis from native Brazilian stingless bees. This work sought to extract, chemically characterize, and evaluate of the antimicrobial properties of volatile oils from propolis of the stingless bees Melipona quadrifasciata quadrifasciata (MQ) and Tetragonisca angustula (TA). The volatile oils from the pulverized propolis samples were obtained in a Clevenger apparatus and characterized by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and to flame ionization detector (GC-FID).

- Intestinal parasitoses remain a significant public health issue in developing countries, particularly linked to low socioeconomic conditions and environmental risks.
- The study conducted in Pomerode, SC, involved 797 participants from a larger cohort, finding a 10.8% prevalence of intestinal parasites, with Endolimax nana being the most common.
- Key risk factors for higher prevalence included being male, older, non-white, and residing in high-risk living areas, highlighting specific demographics more affected by intestinal parasitoses.
