A total of 32 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from 13 honey samples commercially marketed in Malaysia, 6 strains identified as Lactobacillus acidophilus by API CHL50. The isolates had antibacterial activities against multiple antibiotic resistant's Staphylococcus aureus (25 to 32 mm), Staphylococcus epidermis (14 to 22 mm) and Bacillus subtilis (12 to 19 mm) in the agar overlay method after 24 h incubation at 30 °C. The crude supernatant was heat stable at 90 °C and 121 °C for 1 h.

- Asma Saleh W Al-Mabrok's research investigates the antibacterial properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus strains isolated from honey sold in Malaysia, highlighting their potential as natural antibacterial agents.
- The study identified 32 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from honey samples, with 6 strains confirmed as Lactobacillus acidophilus exhibiting significant antibacterial activity against multiple antibiotic-resistant Gram-positive bacteria.
- The findings demonstrated that the crude supernatant from the active strains maintained its antibacterial effectiveness at elevated temperatures, suggesting potential for use in food preservation and as an alternative to antibiotics.
