Analysis of European Honeybee (Apis Mellifera) Wings Using ATR-FTIR and Raman Spectroscopy: A Pilot Study

The infrared (ATR-FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy was used for the structural characterization of honeybee wings. Protein, chitin, and lipid characteristic spectral features were detected using both methods. The protein secondary structure was predominantly composed of the β-sheet molecular conformatio...
