ABSTRACT = {The detection of phenolics, flavonoids and related compounds by HPLC in extracts of unifloral honey of Quillay (<i>Quillaja saponaria</i>) showed phenolic compounds such as caffeic, coumaric and salicylic acids, the flavanone naringenin and the flavonol kaempferol. These extracts showed antibacterial activity against <i>Pseudomonas aureginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus typhi, S. aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> type β, and <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>, and antifungal activity against <i>Candida albicans</i>. Additionally, some aroma and decomposition compounds were identified in the ethanol extract.},
