Objective: The aim of this study is to determine antimicrobial properties of oak honey on biofilm microorganisms and its potential usage.
Material and Methods: The oak honey was collected in 2 years from the same region (OHPH/OHSH). Susceptibility patterns of clinical strains of three bacteria (Escherichia coli-ATCC 35218), (Staphyllococcus aureus-ATCC 29213) , (Pseudomonas aeruginosa -ATCC 27853) and one yeast (Candida albicans -ATCC 10231) strains that can form biofilm communities to oak honey were assessed by the disc diffusion method.
Results: The results revealed that oak honey has high level of antimicrobial activity to the pathogens. The antifungal activity against C. albicans was not measured clearly though, bacteriostatic effect showed itself as a secondary zone.
Conclusion: Oak honey might have a big potential for its antimicrobial properties in near future.

Meşe balının (Quercus spp.) biyofilm mikroorganizmaları üzerindeki antimikrobiyal aktivitesi

Öz

Amaç: Çalışmanın temel amacı meşe balının patojenler üzerinde antimikrobiyal etkisinin araştırılması ve bu alanda olabilecek potansiyel kullanımına açıklık getirmektir.
Materyal ve Yöntem: Meşe balı 2 yıl süre ile aynı bölgeden toplanmıştır (OHPH/OHSH). Biyofilm oluşturma özelliği olan 3 klinik bakteri suşu (Escherichia coli-ATCC 35218), (Staphyllococcus aureus-ATCC 29213) , (Pseudomonas aeruginosa -ATCC 27853) ve 1 klinik maya suşunun (Candida albicans -ATCC 10231) meşe balına karşı duyarlılık testleri disk difüzyon yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir.
Araştırma Bulguları: Meşe balının patojenlere karşı yüksek oranda antimikrobiyal etkisinin olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. C. albicans’a karşı antifungal etki tam olarak ölçülememiş fakat bakterisidal etki sekonder zon ile ortaya çıkmıştır.
Sonuç: Meşe balının yakın gelecekte antimikrobiyal özellikleri açısından büyük bir potansiyele sahip olabileceği ortaya çıkarılmıştır.
