Peter, I found the study here:

...and their use of the word "fresh pollen" really means "trapped pollen", which is already partially fermented (and likely continues to ferment in the trap and in the feeder...any time it isn't frozen).

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND NUTRITIVE VALUE OF BEE-COLLECTED AND BEE-STORED POLLEN by Elton W. HERBERT, Jr. And H. SHIMANUKI ARS, USDA. Apidologie 1978. 9:1

SUMMARY

When fresh pollen and bee-stored pollen extracted from brood combs of free-flying colonies were offered to caged colonies of bees, there appeared to be no difference in nutritive value judged by the number of bees reared to the sealed stage.
