Propolis is a substance produced by bees from the collection of plant resins, with a chemical composition that varies according to the available flora and region, and it has several biological activities. Stingless bee propolis is often produced in reduced amounts, posing a challenge to the study of their volatile compounds, as traditional hydrodistillation extraction would demand more raw propolis than available. These bees collect resins from various sources, resulting in a variable composition, so a standardized reproducible method is fundamental for their analysis. Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME), associated with gas chromatography, appears to be an efficient alternative for the analysis of these volatiles. In this study, the GC-MS results of three types of SPME fibers were compared to those of extracts obtained by hydrodistillation to evaluate their efficiency in representing the composition of essential oils from (geo)propolis of different species. The extraction time and temperature were also standardized. Among the fibers tested, PDMS/DVB extracted the volatiles in a similar manner to the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation for all the samples tested, indicating this to be the best choice of fiber coating for propolis volatile extraction and analysis.
