Effect of adulteration of wax foundation with paraffin and stearin on phenoloxidase (A) and lysozyme (B) activities in the haemolymph of A. mellifera worker bees PA10% – paraffin 10%, n = 30; PA30% – paraffin 30%, n = 30; PA50% – paraffin 50%, n = 30; ST10% – stearin 10%, n = 30; ST30% – stearin 30%, n = 30; ST50% – stearin 50%, n = 30; * – statistically significant difference within an age cohort between the control group and a group with a certain percentage of adulteration with paraffin or stearin (P-value ≤ 0.01); horizontal lines – statistically significant difference within an age cohort between an adulteration level of wax with paraffin and the same adulteration level of wax with stearin (P-value ≤ 0.01); a, b, c – statistically significant differences between age cohorts for the same adulteration level of wax and the same adulterant (P-value ≤ 0.01); bars and whiskers – standard deviation
