OBJECTIVES To evaluate the synergistic action of starch on the antibacterial activity of royal jelly (RJ), a comparative method of adding RJ with and without starch to culture media was used. METHODS Strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli have been used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a variety of freshly reaped RJ. In a second step, lower concentrations of RJ than the MIC were incubated with a set of concentrations of starch and then were added to…

IN VITRO ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ROYAL GELLY AGAINST PATHOGEN ESCHERICHIA COLI
In the study was used a pathogen strain of E. coli, caused septicemia for ducks, resistant for different antibacterial agents: Amoxicillin, Lincospectin, Chloramphenicol, Doxycyclin, Enrofl oxacin,…
ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ROYAL JELLY AND RAPE HONEY AGAINST METHICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus STRAINS
TLDR
In general, honey and royal jelly appeared to have a potential as alternative therapeutic agents against MRSA infections, but clinical studies are needed for confirmation.
Reduction Effect of Royal Jelly and Rape Honey Alone and in Combination Against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Strains
TLDR
Royal jelly alone and in rape honey mix, as well as in combination, have a potential as alternative therapeutics against MRSA strains, resistant for antibiotics.
Antibacterial effect of Royal gelly, mix from Royal jelly and rape honey (1:100), rape and oak honeydew honeys against Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922)
TLDR
Judging by results from spectrophotometric method, percent of inhibition and pH, it was observed, follow succession from drop of antibacterial activity for tested substances that RJ > HH > HJ > RH.
The Lyophilization Process Maintains the Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Royal Jelly
TLDR
The fatty acid 10H2DA exhibited a good antibacterial activity against Streptococcus pneumoniae and may be used as an alternative and complementary treatment for infections caused by antibiotic-resistant S. pneumoniae.
Rediscovering the antibiotics of the hive.
TLDR
A short review of recent patents on antibiotics of hives finds that honey, propolis, royal jelly and bee venom have a strong antibacterial activity, and propolis has been found to have the strongest action against bacteria.
Royal Jelly: An ancient remedy with remarkable antibacterial properties.
Bee Products: The Rediscovered Antibiotics
TLDR
Honey and other bee products have been subjected to laboratory and clinical investigations over the past few decades, the most significant discovery being their antibacterial activity, and these products should be limited to those which are safe and that exhibit proven antibacterial activities.
Antibacterial Activity and Mechanism of Action of 10-HDA Against Escherichia coli
TLDR
It was shown that 10-HDA has obvious effects against Gram-negative bacteria and its antibacterial activity was not affected by pH and temperature, and it was showed that the membrane integrity was damaged and resulted in the leakage of large molecules.
Inhibitory action of 10-HDA on the growth of Escherichia coli: Role of cell membrane integrity
TLDR
The combined results suggested that 10-HDA may damage the structure of bacterial cellmembrane, which cause E.coli bacteria to die eventually.

Synergistic effect of starch on the antibacterial activity of honey.
TLDR
It is speculated that the amylase present in honey hydrolyzed the starch chains to randomly produce dextrin and maltose and that this increased the osmotic effect of the media, which consequently increased the antibacterial activity.
Synergistic action of starch and honey against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in correlation with diastase number.
TLDR
To evaluate the synergistic action of starch on the antibacterial activity of honey against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a comparative method of adding honey with and without starch to culture media was used and a significant MIC drop has been noticed with each variety.
