Linking Measure of the Tropical Stingless Bee (Apidae, Meliponini, and Heterotrigona itama) Honey Quality with Hives Distance to the Source of Heavy Metal Pollution in Urban and In... by Nurul Hamizah Salman, Lum Mok Sam, Kimberly Ador, Bellericter Binjamin, Mohd Iftar Johwan Johny-Hasbulah, Suzan Benedick
