Bacterial isolates
According to Hassanein et al. [7], bacterial isolates from wounds of hospital patients: Aeromonas schubertii, Haemophilius paraphrohaemlyticus, Micrococcus luteus, Cellulosimicrobium cellulans, Listonella anguillarum and Acinetobacter baumannii, Buy aw Honey Square Glass Jar Online
exhibit sensitivity to solutions of honey at various concentrations ranging between 25% and 40%. Many bacterial pathogens have developed resistance to antibiotic introduced into clinical practice. Using a medical-grade honey, wound pathogens, including those with high levels of innate or acquired antibiotic resistance, were killed by 4.0–14.8% honey, Buy Raw Honey Squeeze Bottle Online
which is a concentration that can be maintained in the wound environment. Resistance to honey could not be induced under conditions that rapidly induced resistance to antibiotics [28]. According to Cooper et al. [29], Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-sensitive enterococci (VSE) isolated from infected wounds and 20 strains of vancomycinresistant enterococci shown sensitivity to honey at various concentrations. Honey exhibits synergistic eوٴect against MRSA [30], where, sub-lethal concentrations of manuka honey (6%w/v) have a marked eوٴect in enhancing the susceptibility of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus to Oxacillin, and reverses resistance developed against the drug (
