Antibacterial effect and clinical potential of honey collected from Scaptotrigona bipunctata Lepeletier (1836) and Africanized bees Apis mellifera Latreille and their mixture

Comparison of the Antibacterial Effect of Different Biological Silver Nanoparticles Synthetized and Integrated with Honeys

“…However, MIC against E. coli and S. aureus strains increased for most types of microcompounds centrifuged from the honey solution (Table 6). This noticed increase alludes to the relevance of the honey present in the solution as an antibacterial factor, as described by literature [35][36][37][38][39][40] . HSB pH 10 and HSB pH 10δ MIC lowered after microcompound washing, which might be related to two compounded factors.…”

“…Notably, the reducing sugars and oxygen peroxide can vary significantly samples. For example, honey produced by Scaptotrigona bipunctata (shown to contain a relevant antibacterial potential) has lower sugar content and greater humidity than the conventional honey produced by Apis mellifera [31,[34][35][36] . Therefore, usage of a different honey sample may alter silver particles' structure as well as their antibacterial property.…”

“…Additionally, honey contains antibacterial properties, which can further enhance the antibacterial potential of nanoparticles. For example, the hydrogen peroxide causes oxidative stress in bacteria, and flavonoids exhibit antioxidative, antiviral, and anticancer properties [29,30,[35][36][37][38] . Furthermore, Manuka honey, produced by A. mellifera collecting nectar from the Leptospermum ssp.…”

“…This is corroborated in the SEM images of bacteria after micro compound treatments, which show a greater amount of cellular damage in cases which E. coli was subjected to treatments with ML or MB (Figure 4). While the antibacterial properties described in this work differs greatly from those described for honey, high degrees of basicity also compromise stability of antibacterial molecules such as H 2 O 2 , and thus the data found indicate that honey might partially contribute to the antibacterial effect could be related to the of the antibacterial effect of the MAB micro compound (NISHIO et al, 2015CLÉBIS et al, 2019BRUDZYNSKI 2020,). Therefore, micro compounds obtained through different protocols wereshown by the experiments performed to present differences in their effect against bacteria.…”

“…was more sensitive to the micro compound treatments than the Gram-positive one (S. aureus), which were which corroborates to current literature (BAEK; HAJIPOUR et al, 2012;LAGBAS et al, 2015). Additionally, this finding advocates for micro compounds usage against bacterial infections in isolation as well as in combination because other studies have established Gram-negative bacteria to be more resistant to other antibacterial substances (including novel antibacterials) LAGBAS;PELISCO;RIEGO, 2015;NISHIO et al, 2015;JIMENEZ et al, 2016;GUPTA et al, 2019;CLÉBIS et al, 2019).…”
