Abstract
It is established that honeybee venom contains an α esterase and a β esterase, and two alkaline and three acid phosphatases. The probable presence of two further acid phosphatases is indicated through the use of Naphthyl AS phosphates as substrate. Such enzymes were previously reported to be absent in bee venom (Schoetensack, 1953).Keywords
