AB  - American foulbrood is a bacterial disease caused by the Gram-positive 
  bacterium <I>Paenibacillus</I> larvae and is the most dangerous disease of the 
  honeybee. The objective of this study is to compare the methods of detection 
  of this bacterium in different products and samples from the hive. The samples 
  of honey bees, wax, pollen and debris were taken from the hive during Spring 
  period of 2013. Different microbiological methods were used for detection of 
  the bacteria. MYPGP the culture medium is used during all the identifications 
  of the bacterium. The results show that the diagnosis of the disease is more 
  effective in samples of honey and bees than the detection of the bacteria in 
  the wax, pollen and debris from the hive. Even in the absence of symptoms of 
  the disease, the bacteria can be detected in honey or bees.
