**4. Royal Jelly Quality Evaluation**

Royal jelly is highly valued by consumers for its health benefits attributed to its abundant protein, peptides, lipids, and other bioactive nutrients. Consequently, the quality assessment of royal jelly plays a pivotal role in ensuring the market's sustainable and healthy development. Considering that the lipid content in royal jelly originates from beecollected pollen, and different plant sources of pollen can influence the lipid composition of royal jelly, Zhou et al. conducted an investigation to explore how feeding honeybees with various types of pollen affects the lipid composition of royal jelly [13]. The findings unveiled substantial variations in the phospholipid and fatty acid content in royal jelly produced by honeybees fed with pollen containing diverse lipid components, thereby exerting an impact on its overall quality. This research offers valuable guidance for producing premium-grade royal jelly.
