“…Oak honey is produced either from oak aphids, or else from sugary substance released from oak leaves under some stress conditions. Therefore, although both oak and pine honeys are honeydew characterized, oak honey has a rather different composition and biologically active properties 17,30 . The higher anti-hyaluronidase activity of oak honey may derive from its composition.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-hyaluronidase activities of honeys from different botanical origins honeys in order to determine their anti-inflammatory properties. The total phenolic contents, total flavonoids and total tannin levels of six types of honey, chestnut, oak, heather, pine, buckwheat and mixed blossom, were determined. Concentrationrelated inhibition values were tested turbidimetrically on bovine testis hyaluronidase (BTHase) as IC 50 (mg/mL). All honeys exhibited various concentration-dependent degrees of inhibition against BTHase. Inhibition values varied significantly depending on honeys' levels of phenolic contents, flavonoid and tannin. The honeys with the highest anti-hyaluronidase activity were oak, chestnut and heather. In conclusion, polyphenol-rich honeys have high anti-hyaluronidase activity, and these honeys have high protective and complementary potential against hyaluronidase-induced anti-inflammatory failures.

“…In contrast to pine honey, oak honey can be produced in two ways. Pine honey is produced from a secretion resulting from absorption of pine phloem by female members of Marchalina hellenica (Sternorhyncha: Coccoidea, Marchalinidae) (González-Paramás et al, 2007;Ülgentürk et al, 2013). Oak honey, however, is the result of the collection of sugary substances that seep out of oak under various stress conditions (moisture and temperature) or from digestive by-products of various aphids found on oak tree leaves (Quercus sps.…”

“…Gaimari et al (2007) provided a detailed redescription with biological notes on this species, studied in Greece, and speculated that it ought to occur in Turkey, evidently unaware that it had been already recorded from there. More information on the biology of this species in Turkey was given by Ülgentürk et al (2013).…”
