NO, NO & NO.
 
A leading authority on AFB, M Horntizki, developed a test for AFB
contamination a few years ago that uses this property.
 
In simple terms, the essential elements of the test are:
1) Honey samples are pasteurized to eliminate everything else and then cultured.
2) AFB is the only pathogen to survive pasteurization so any thing that
grows in the culture is AFB
