Abstract

Propolis is a resinous substance from diverse origins with antinflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which has been studied on some aspects. In this study, nine propolis products, sold in pharmacies and drugstores of São Paulo city, were evaluated for their claimed antimicrobial properties displayed in flask labels and/or product use instruction brochures. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Candida albicans, Enterococcus faecalis , and Streptococcus mutans. The method of diffusion in agar was used for evaluating every product in undiluted solutions, in a recommended dilution, and diluted one to tenth of recommended dilution. The results indicated that the recommended dilutions of products showed no antimicrobial activity.
