The article is devoted to the study of the phenolic composition of propolis collected in the territory of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Propolis is a natural product used for medicinal purposes. Biological properties of propolis are explained primarily by the presence of significant quantities of phenolic compounds, namely flavonoids. Features of chemical composition of different geographical types of propolis depends on the diversity of flora in the gathering place. In this regard, the purpose of the research is qualitative and quantitative analysis of phenolic compounds of propolis collected in the territory of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Methods for the study of the phenolic composition of propolis were high color reaction method chromatography and photocolorimetric method. The study of propolis collected in the Nizhny Novgorod region, confirmed the presence of compounds of phenolic nature, which are acceptable for use in medical and pharmaceutical purposes.
