In this study, we purposed
that antioxidant and antimicrobial characteristics of different nine different honey
types belonging to Turkey flora. Samples were obtained
from local markets. The antimicrobial activities of the samples against six
bacteria and only yeast (Clostridium
perfringens, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa,
Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia
coli and Candida
albicans) were assessed using disc diffision method. As a result of these
studies, it was determined that the studied samples did not have antimicrobial
activities against these seven pathogens. Furthermore, antioxidant
activities of the honey samples have been carried out by using six antioxidant test methods. These methods
are DPPH free radical scavenging (DPPH) and hydrogen peroxide scavenging (HPSA)
activities, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and ferrous ion chelating activities
(MCA). In addition, the total phenolic contents (TPC) and the total flavonoid
contents (TFC) have been determined. The obtained activity values were compared
to standard antioxidants (BHA, RUT and TRO). According to these results, sample
9 has more influential antioxidant activity than the other samples.
