abstract

the present study was carried out to determine the potential antibacterial effect of essential oil of origanumvulgare against antibiotic resistant e.coli. in this study, the essential oil of origanumvulgare obtained by hydrodistillation was analyzed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (gc-ms) in order to determine their chemical composition. the minimum inhibitory concentrations were investigated to characterize the antimicrobial activities of this essential oil. the results in tables 1 showed that essential oil of origanumvulgare had inhibitory effect against most isolated plates. the least mic value of essential oil of origanumvulgare was 0.62 mg/ml and the highest mbc value of essential oil of origanumvulgare were 5 mg/ml and 10mg/ml. the present studies confirm the use of this essential oil as antibacterial agent. further research is required to evaluate the practical values of therapeutic applications.

Antimicrobial activity of essential oils of cultivated oregano (Origanum vulgare), sage (Salvia officinalis), and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) against clinical isolates of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Klebsiella pneumoniae

BACKGROUND Oregano (Origanum vulgare), sage (Salvia officinalis), and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) are aromatic plants with ornamental, culinary, and phytotherapeutic use all over the world. In Europe, they are traditionally used in the southern countries, particularly in the Mediterranean region. The antimicrobial activities of the essential oils (EOs) derived from those plants have captured the at...

Essential Oils Nanoemulsions: ‎Preparation, Characterization and Study of ‎Antibacterial Activity against Escherichia ‎Coli

   This research studies the application of essential oil nanoemulsion as herbal medicine instead of using antibiotics and chemicals. Thyme, shirazi thyme and rosemary essential oils were selected as herbal drugs. Essential oil nanoemulsions with Tween 80 and/or Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactants were prepared and investigated. Physicochemical characterizations such as hydrodynamic di...

Essential Oils of Oregano: Biological Activity beyond Their Antimicrobial Properties.

Essential oils of oregano are widely recognized for their antimicrobial activity, as well as their antiviral and antifungal properties. Nevertheless, recent investigations have demonstrated that these compounds are also potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and cancer suppressor agents. These properties of oregano essential oils are of potential interest to the food, cosmetic and ...

Antimicrobial activity of essential oils against Escherichia coli O157:H7 in organic soil

Soil can be a significant source of preharvest contamination of produce by pathogens. Demand for natural pesticides such as essential oils for organic farming continues to increase. We examined the antimicrobial activity of several essential oils against Escherichia coli O157:H7 in soil. Two essential oils (cinnamaldehyde and eugenol), two bio-pesticides (Ecotrol and Sporan) containing essentia...
