ABSTRACT: The purpose of the presented work was dedicated to identifying the
species composition of the mycobiota of honey bees in Azerbaijan condition.
From the samples taken from bees, materials became clear that in the formation of mycobiota those materials (from bees, from where they live and their products) in generally participate 52 species of fungi. Among the
recorded fungi, species
take part such as Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissl., Aspergillus flavus Link, Candida albicans (C.P. Robin) Berkhout, Cladosporium herbarum (Pers.) Link, Penicillium cuclopium Westling, P. granulatum Bainier and etc. which carry features
conditionally pathogenicity, toxicity, allergens and danger to biological productivity of bees and as well as to
pollution of their products. It is known for a long time to scientists that
these species are dangerous for human health. For this reason, preparation of normative documents that reflect the principles of microbiological safety of
bee products is a necessary task.
