Abstract

Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by honey bees from the nectars of plant flowers or tree exudates. Natural honey has been valued in traditional medicine having demonstrated many antioxidant and antibacterial properties. The present study aimed to evaluate physicochemical characteristics and the antibacterial and antioxidant activity of two varieties of honey from Algerian steppe. Physicochemical parameters, such as pH, moisture content, electrical conductivity (EC), total acidity, ree acidity,ash and HMF were measured. The antibacterial activity was examined against the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 33862 by using the agar incorporation technique method and the determination of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC).The antioxidant activity was assessed by using the 2,2 diphenyl 1 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the fer reduction antixydant power (FRAP). Physico-chemical analysis of honey samples confirmed good quality of honey according to the standards set by European Union Commission and Codex Alimentarius Commission. All samples had ability to scavenge DPPH. radicals and showed reducing potential analyzed by FRAP methods, with the highest performance obtained in Euphorbia cheridenia honey. The result of the antibacterial effect of this study revealed that our honey samples have showed an important antibacterial activity against all the bacterial tested strains, Noeae mucronata honey has the better antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The results of this study may suggest that Algerian honey possess natural compounds with antibacterial and antioxidant properties which can be used as natural agents in new drugs for therapy of diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria and oxidative stress.
阿尔及利亚大草原两种蜂蜜的理化性质及抑菌抗氧化活性
蜂蜜是一种天然的甜物质,由蜜蜂从植物的花蜜或树木的分泌物中生产出来。天然蜂蜜在传统医学中很有价值,它具有许多抗氧化和抗菌的特性。本研究旨在评价阿尔及利亚大草原两种蜂蜜的理化特性和抗菌抗氧化活性。测定了其理化参数,如pH、含水量、电导率、总酸度、游离酸度、灰分和HMF。采用琼脂掺入法测定其对铜绿假单胞菌ATCC 27853、大肠杆菌ATCC 25922、金黄色葡萄球菌ATCC 33862的抑菌活性,并测定其最低抑菌浓度(MIC)。采用2,2二苯基- 1吡啶酰肼(DPPH)和还原性抗氧化能力(FRAP)评价其抗氧化活性。经理化分析,蜂蜜质量符合欧盟委员会和食品法典委员会制定的标准。所有样品均具有清除DPPH的能力。通过FRAP方法分析,以大戟蜂蜜中表现出最高的还原潜力。本研究的抑菌效果结果表明,我们的蜂蜜样品对所有被试菌株都表现出重要的抑菌活性,其中对大肠杆菌和金黄色葡萄球菌的抑菌效果较好。本研究结果提示阿尔及利亚蜂蜜具有抗菌和抗氧化的天然化合物,可作为治疗病原菌和氧化应激引起的疾病的新药的天然药物。
