Background
Different researches on therapeutic effects of honey have been conducted in different regions; however the study on the potential antibacterial activity of Malaysian honey is still limited. In this study, antibacterial activities of different monofloral honey samples were tested against several common human pathogenic bacteria.Materials and Methods
The well-diffusion method, minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) techniques were employed to investigate the putative antibacterial activity of Malaysian monofloral honey from Koompassia excelsa (Becc.) Taub (Tualang), Melaleuca cajuputi Powell (Gelam) and Durio zibethinus Murr. (Durian). Honey samples were tested against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC6518 and ATCC25923, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC12228, Enterococcus faecium LMG16192, Enterococcus faecalis LMG16216 and ATCC29212, Escherichia coli ATCC25922, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium ATCC14028 and Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC13883.Results
Marked variations were observed in the antibacterial activity of these honey samples. Durian honey failed to produce substantial antibacterial activity, whereas Tualang and Gelam honey showed a spectrum of antibacterial activity with their growth inhibitory effects against all of the tested bacterial species including vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE).Conclusion
Present findings suggested Gelam honey possesses highest antibacterial effect among the tested Malaysian honey samples. 相似文献4.

INTRODUCTION
Granular cell tumours (GrCTs) are uncommon soft tissue tumours that are usually benign (approximately 0.5%–2.0% have been reported as malignant). They are very rarely found at the extremities. Differentiating a malignant GrCT from a benign one is important as the former is aggressive and has a poor prognosis, whereas the latter, after surgical resection, has excellent outcomes. A malignant lesion can be suspected on clinical presentation and confirmed via histopathological examination using the Fanburg-Smith criteria.METHODS
This was a retrospective review of all cases of GrCT of the extremities that presented to the Orthopaedic Oncology Unit of University Malaya Medical Centre, Malaysia, from September 2006 to March 2013.RESULTS
There were a total of five cases, all of which involved female patients aged 13–40 (mean age 24) years. Three cases involved the upper limbs and two involved the lower limbs. Using the Fanburg-Smith criteria, three cases were classified as benign, one as atypical and one as malignant. Wide local excision was performed in all five cases and the outcomes were excellent except for the patient with a malignant tumour. That patient presented with lung metastasis about three months after surgery.CONCLUSION
Malignant and benign GrCTs can be differentiated on clinical presentation and by using the Fanburg-Smith criteria. We believe that wide local excision is the best treatment for both benign and malignant tumours. The role of adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy in malignant GrCTs should be studied. All patients with GrCTs should receive follow-up to check for recurrence and metastasis. 相似文献5.
