The present study focuses on samples of Polish herbhoneys (HHs), their chemical composition and antimicrobial activity. A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method was used to analyse eight samples of herbal honeys and three samples of nectar honeys. Their antimicrobial activities were tested on selected Gram-positive (Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus schleiferi) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria, as well as on pathogenic fungi Candida albicans. Ether extracts of HHs showed significant differences in composition but the principal groups found in the extracts were phenolics and aliphatic hydroxy acids typical of royal jelly and unsaturated dicarboxylic acids. In spite of the differences in chemical composition, antimicrobial activity of the extracts of HHs against all the tested microorganisms except E. coli was observed.
本研究聚焦于波兰药草蜂蜜（HHs）样本、其化学成分及抗菌活性。采用气相色谱 - 质谱联用（GC - MS）方法分析了八个药草蜂蜜样本和三个花蜜蜂蜜样本。对选定的革兰氏阳性菌（蜡样芽孢杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、施氏葡萄球菌）、革兰氏阴性菌（大肠杆菌）以及致病性真菌白色念珠菌进行了抗菌活性测试。药草蜂蜜的乙醚提取物在成分上显示出显著差异，但提取物中发现的主要类别是蜂王浆特有的酚类和脂肪族羟基酸以及不饱和二羧酸。尽管化学成分存在差异，但观察到药草蜂蜜提取物对除大肠杆菌外的所有测试微生物均有抗菌活性。
