The predominant bacteria isolated from the infected wounds were Staphylococcus aureus (15, 41.7%).

In this study, 36 bacterial isolates were recovered from 50 specimens, showing an isolation rate of 72%. All statistical analysis was performed by using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20. A preliminary sensitivity test was done to all types of honey by using disk diffusion while minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration were determined for the most potent honey by the broth dilution technique. Different concentrations of honey (25–100% v/v) were tested against each type of clinical isolates obtained from wound infection.

Methicillin resistance was detected using cefoxitin (30 μg) and oxacillin (1 μg) antibiotic discs.

An experimental study was conducted from May to November 2017. The aim of this study is to determine in vitro antibacterial activity of honey against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates from wound infection. Antimicrobial drug resistance is one of the serious issues this world is facing nowadays, and increased cost of searching for effective antimicrobial agents and the decreased rate of new drug discovery have made the situation increasingly worrisome.
