Honey has long been used as a [[topical antibiotic]] by practitioners of [[traditional medicine|traditional]] and [[herbal medicine]]. Honey's antibacterial effects were first demonstrated by the Dutch scientist Bernardus Adrianus van Ketel in 1892. Since then, numerous studies have shown that honey has broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against [[Gram-positive bacteria|gram-positive]] and [[Gram-negative bacteria|gram-negative]] bacteria, although potency varies widely between different honeys. Due to the proliferation of [[List of antibiotic-resistant bacteria|antibiotic-resistant bacteria]] in the last few decades, there has been renewed interest in researching the antibacterial properties of honey. Components of honey under preliminary research for potential antibiotic use include [[methylglyoxal]], [[hydrogen peroxide]], and royalisin (also called defensin-1).</div>FuzzyBot
