Abstract

Background: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) show ample antibacterial activities when combining with honey. Aim and Objective: The study was designed to determine the antibacterial activity of different kinds of honey against the common wound pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. Materials and Methods: Bacterial strain was used to inoculate the wound. S. aureus ATCC-25923 was used in the study. Results: Wound infection examination was done by total count of bacterial load. In all three groups, better percentage of the wound closer, histological, blood, and tissue parameters identified in honey combine with AgNPs, showed a synergistic effect. Conclusion: Honey and AgNPs showed synergistic effect. It is recommended to apply both the products together.
