Antibacterial activity measurement of Manuka honey: UMF vs MGO

Manuka honey comes packaged with antibacterial activity measurement labelled on the jar. In this case it is MGO 220+.  These numbers can  be confusing, because there are different measurement  systems in use!

MGO (or methylglyoxal) is a globally recognised measure of antibacterial activity. Berringa uses this proven measurement methodology to grade and verify the actual MGO activity levels for each batch using independent testing at NATA accredited laboratories.

UMF (unique manuka factor) is another system of measurement for antibacterial activity.  While most countries use MGO as the standard measurement, UMF is usually associated with some Manuka honey products from New Zealand.

You can use the chart below to compare MGO and UMF levels:
