متن کاملThe antibacterial hydrogen peroxide generation from Ziziphus Spina Christi and Acacia spp. honey
Honey and hydrogen peroxide are effective antibacterial agents. The antibacterial activity of honey is mainly attributed to hydrogen peroxide generation that is produced in the honey by the activity of the glucose oxidase (GOX) enzyme. Ziziphus Spina Christi and Acacia spp. honey samples were collected for the study. Hydrogen peroxide was measured using a sensitive enzymatic/colorimetric assay....
