Characterization of phenolic profile alterations in metal-polluted bee pollen via capillary electrophoresis

Abstract Bee pollen is a conglomerate of plant pollens, and its nutritional contents include bioactive compounds with antioxidant/antiradical potentials. These potentials are conditioned by botanical origin. In Chile, the native flora is diverse and promising in terms of bioactive compounds, but man...
