- ItemAntibacterial Effect of Honey-Derived Exosomes Containing Antimicrobial Peptides Against Oral Streptococci(2021) Camila Leiva-Sabadini; Simon Alvarez; Nelson P Barrera; Christina MAP Schuh; Sebastian AguayoPurpose: Recently, our group found exosome-like extracellular vesicles (EVs) in Apis mellifera honey displaying strong antibacterial effects; however, the underlying mechanism is still not understood. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to characterize the molecular and nanomechanical properties of A. mellifera honey-derived EVs in order to elucidate the mechanisms behind their antibacterial effect, as well as to determine differential antibiofilm properties against relevant oral streptococci.
