Rsearch Paper Rough Draft Bacteria such as Staphylococcus Aureus, Staphylococcus Epidermis, and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa contribute to many hospital-related infections. Hospital-related infections can be particularly harmful to immunocompromised persons. Due to its known antimicrobial characteristics, manuka honey has been used in medical-grade honey to help fight such infections (Pleeging et al., 2020). However, these bacteria also have the ability to form a biofilm, which can make them harder to eliminate. In order to determine whether manuka honey affects biofilm-forming bacteria, we ran a growth response assay. The growth response assay determines the minimum inhibitory concentration of manuka honey (Hassan et al., 2011). The experiment's expected outcome is the demonstration of antimicrobial and anti-biofilm characteristics of Staphylococcus Aureus due to Manuka honey. The Manuka honey with the higher MGO concentration is expected to have a greater inhibitory factor. If the re...
