Abstract

Fruit juices are a fantastic source of nutrients that are good for people, it compressed of many nutritional substances like water, fibre, vitamins, natural sugars, proteins and phytochemicals. In addition to regulating the digestive system, their high cellulose and high fibre concentration also helpful for digestion. Although it contains different nutritional values, but it results in many outbreaks due to improper washing of fruits, poor sanitation of cutting utensils like unwashed knives, microorganisms contaminated jars, etc. The ideal aim of the study was to determine the antimicrobial activity of honey against the microbes isolated from the packed fruit juices. Severe outbreaks of food borne illness are brought on by the ingestion of unsafe and unhygienic fruits. The honey was taken as an antimicrobial agent, which is then screened for their physiochemical analysis by performing various tests like pH, free acidity, moisture content, ash and sugar. The microbes isolated from the packed fruit jucies were E. coli, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Mucor and Aspergillus. The antimicrobial activity of honey against the isolated microbes was determined by using agar well diffusion and disc diffusion method. In which the honey was taken in two concentrations which are diluted honey and undiluted honey. They possessed a great zone of inhibition against the microbes. In disc diffusion the undiluted honey showed excellent impact compared to the diluted honey. And in agar well diffusion the undiluted honey again result in great zone compared to diluted honey. Through this we state that undiluted honey has great impact on the isolated microbes and can be used as an alternative source of sweetener in the fruit juices which can minimise the bacterial contamination which result in low infection.
