Quantification of Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Gammaproteobacteria from Bohemian Honey [PDF]

Scientia Agriculturae Bohemica, 2018
Abstract Honey, which has been used as an ancient remedy for infected wounds, has been shown in laboratory studies to have antimicrobial action against a spectrum of bacteria and fungi. Because very little quantitative information exists on the microbiota of honey, the aim of this study was to quantify the Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and
