Honey is believed to be nature’s antimicrobial agent that does not have resistance. Often, this honey has to be sterilized so that it is rendered as medical grade honey ready to be used on wounds. Gamma irradiation is the best method of sterilization with 15kGy dose being effective for honey sterilization as seen in our previous study. We conducted this study and observed that honey is sterile even after 18 months of irradiation and it can be continued to be used on wounds. To best of our knowledge, this is one of the first such observational studies on long term maintenance of honey sterility.
