Honey Research Unit
Directors: Prof Peter Molan, Prof Alistair Wilkins
The Honey Research Unit (HRU) was established to promote research into the antimicrobial properties, composition and identification of honeys. It also serves as a source of expert knowledge on the composition and properties of honey, providing information and advice to marketers of honey and products containing honey, and information for the public on use of honey as a therapeutic agent. The Unit is funded by the New Zealand honey industry and by various research grants.
