Identification and Quantitation of 2-Acetyl-1-pyrroline in Manuka Honey (Leptospermum scoparium). Manuka honey from New Zealand is known for its exceptional antibacterial activity, which is due to high amounts of the 1,2-dicarbonyl compound methylglyoxal (MGO). MGO in manuka honey is formed via non-enzymatic dehydration from dihydroxyacetone (DHA) during honey maturation.

Manuka-type honeys can eradicate biofilms produced by Staphylococcus aureus strains with different biofilm-forming abilities Chronic wounds are a major global health problem. Their management is difficult and costly, and the development of antibiotic resistance by both planktonic and biofilm-associated bacteria necessitates the use of alternative wound treatments. Honey is now being revisited as an alternative treatment due to its broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and the inability of bacteria to develop resistance to it.

Identification and quantification of methylglyoxal as the dominant antibacterial constituent of Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) honeys from New Zealand Professor Thomas Henle and colleagues at The Technical University of Dresden publish the research results upon identifying the substance formerly known as the “unique manuka factor” primarily responsible for the non-peroxide activity of manuka honey.

Manuka honey is bactericidal against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and results in differential expression of oprF and algD New research (Oct 2012) from researchers at Cardiff regarding Manuka honey's bactericidal activity

Improving Antibiotic Activity against Wound Pathogens with Manuka Honey In Vitro From Abstract: Following the discovery of synergistic action between oxacillin and manuka honey against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, this study was undertaken to search for further synergistic combinations of antibiotics and honey that might have potential in treating wounds.

The in vitro effect of manuka honeys on growth and adherence of oral bacteria Honey has been used since ancient times and more recently, for the healing of wounds and against infectious diseases. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of two manuka honeys showing different potencies of their antibacterial activity, on potentially pathogenic oral bacteria. Manuka Honey with Cyclopower ™ A Natural Bioactive for Improved Gastrointestinal Health A new product (Manuka honey with Cyclopower) has been developed using encapsulated Manuka honey combined with a-cyclodextrin (a natural cyclical sugar), creating a free-flowing powder that can easily be added to foods and beverages for ease of delivery of health benefits. Antibacterial Power Against Superbugs | Manuka Honey CycloPower Research shows Cyclopower with manuka honey has antibacterial activity against superbugs like antibiotic-resistant bacteria MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus).  BUY Manuka Health  Products by click on this link  http://www.iherb.com/manuka-health?rcode=fiw102  and take 5$ OFF yours order! ...
