Honey exhibits antimicrobial activities against a wide range of bacteria in different milieu. This study aims to compare the effects of five types of honey (both imported and local Saudi honey) against . The five types of honey (Manuka Honey UMF +20, Manuka Honey UMF +16, Active +10 Manuka Honey, Sidr honey and honey) were evaluated for their bactericidal/bacteriostatic activities against both methicillin resistant and sensitive . The inhibitory effect of honey on bacterial growth was evident at concentrations of 20% and 10% (v/v). Manuka Honey showed the best results. Manuka Honey UMF +20 had a bactericidal effect on both methicillin resistant and sensitive . However, Sidr and honey exerted only a bacteriostatic effect. The efficacy of different types of honey against was dependent on the type of honey and the concentration at which it was administered. Manuka Honey had the best bactericidal activity. Future experiments should be conducted to evaluate the effects of honey on bacterial resistance.
蜂蜜在不同环境中对多种细菌具有抗菌活性。本研究旨在比较五种蜂蜜（进口蜂蜜和沙特本地蜂蜜）对……的影响。对五种蜂蜜（麦卢卡蜂蜜UMF +20、麦卢卡蜂蜜UMF +16、活性+10麦卢卡蜂蜜、酸枣蜂蜜和蜂蜜）针对耐甲氧西林菌和敏感菌的杀菌/抑菌活性进行了评估。在20%和10%（v/v）浓度下，蜂蜜对细菌生长的抑制作用明显。麦卢卡蜂蜜效果最佳。麦卢卡蜂蜜UMF +20对耐甲氧西林菌和敏感菌均有杀菌作用。然而，酸枣蜂蜜和蜂蜜仅发挥抑菌作用。不同类型蜂蜜对……的功效取决于蜂蜜的类型及其施用浓度。麦卢卡蜂蜜具有最佳的杀菌活性。未来应开展实验以评估蜂蜜对细菌耐药性的影响。
