Abstract
- Bee body is the most suitable in evaluation of elements loading in different taxons of the biosphere.
- Propolis is especially sensitive to Pb, Al, Sn and Cr loading.
- Elements accumulation in bee bread may be used on a par with bee body mineral content only in cases with equal honey content in bee bread.
- Differences in elements accumulation by bee body and honey are the largest for Mn and the smallest for Si.
- Bee body/honey elements ratio depends on geochemical and anthropogenic elements loading.
