Abstract EN
Honey exhibits antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria.
The aim of the present work was to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of the Libyan honeys harmal (Peganum harmala L.) , red camphor (Cinnamomum camphora), white camphor (Eucalyptus globule), sarou (Cupressus sempervirens), athl (Tamarix aphylla ) and kharoub (Ceratonia silique ) on Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeuroginosa, Escherichia coli, Bacteriods spp., Sarcina spp.
and Candida albicans.
Pathogens exhibited different sensitivities towards the honey samples.
The results showed that C.
camphora inhibited seven out of the nine tested microorganisms followed by T.
aphylla honey, which inhibited six of them.
The lowest effects were shown by P.
harmala and C.
semperviren honeys, where they only inhibited four different types of the tested microorganisms.
