Description
Bees are highly organized insects of the order Hymenoptera. Bee stings, like other hymenopterans, can become a threat to the health and life of people with systemic reactions to their poison. Beekeepers are at greatest risk.
Fatal anaphylactic shock in sensitized individuals is possible even after a single bite. Pain, redness and swelling appear at the site of the bee sting. The reaction can be local, regional, or generalized with a systemic anaphylactic reaction. Anaphylactic reactions to Hymenoptera bites do not depend on the dose of poison or the number of bites.
Bee poison is one of the most studied poisons. The main allergens in it are A2, hyaluronidase, acid phosphatase and methylin. Bee poison also contains biogenic amines, such as histamine, polypeptides and enzymes, the secretion of which can attract other bees and hornets. Allergic reactions to various bee products are also possible, for example, royal jelly, propolis, in the presence of sensitization to bee poison.
