- Pollen is produced by cone-bearing and flowering
plants as part of their reproduction process.
- In cone-bearing plants, pollen is produced in
pollen cones.
- Flowering plants produce pollen in the anthers
within the flower.
- Pollen grains have an outer and inner wall and
consist of one to a few cells. The outer wall may be smooth or
covered with spines, warts, granules or furrows, which aids in
identification of the pollen grains and also helps them adhere to
insects that visit the flower
- Pollen production is influenced by the weather.
Colder weather delays pollen release, whereas mild winters with
warmer days lead to an earlier pollen season.
- For prevention of spoilage and for preservation
of a maximum quality the pollen
has to be harvested daily and immediately placed in a freezer. After
two days of storage in the freezer, the pest insects will be
killed114 After thawing pollen can be kept only for a few hours and
should be further processed as soon as possible
- The pollen is best dried in an electric oven,
where humidity can continuously escape
The maximum temperature is 30°C and the drying time should be as
short as possible in order to avoid vitamin losses.
- Pollen remains stable until 1.5 years of storage
at room temperature. Under these conditions pollen keeps its sensory
and microbiological
quality for a storage period of two years, if stored in a cool, dry
and dark place
- Compared to the vitamin-richest corns, fruits and
vegetables, pollen has 20 times more vitamine A and significantly
more panthothenic and folic acids and biotin.
- Most applications of pollen in modern medicine
are pollen preparations of flower pollen
- Pollen extracts are reported to produce good
results in patients suffering from nutritional problems in
the form of emaciation, loss of appetite and physical and mental
asthenia
