The higher the MGO content, the stronger the antibacterial effect. The UMF\u2122 certification mark indicates that the honey contains this specific active ingredient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Authenticity Verification of Leptosperin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leptosperin is unique to Manuka nectar, ensuring the honey's authenticity.

The higher the DHA content, the longer the efficacy of methylglyoxal persists. Honey certified with the UMF\u2122 rating must contain at least 70mg\/kg of this compound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) Freshness Indicator<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) testing ensures that Manuka honey has not been subjected to excessive heating or prolonged storage, thereby preserving its unique properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UMF\u2122 Rating System The Significance of UMF\u2122 Rating Methylglyoxal (MGO) Efficacy Rating Methylglyoxal (MGO) confers unique antibacterial properties to Manuka honey [...]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5342"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5342\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5345,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5342\/revisions\/5345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kavezi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
