Title: | Chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of Satureja hortensis L. essential oil | Authors: | Mihajilov-Krstev T. Radnović, Dragan Kitić D. Zlatković B. Marko Ristić Branković S. |
Issue Date: | 22-Oct-2009 | Journal: | Central European Journal of Biology | Abstract: | Essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. was analyzed by GC and GC/MS and tested by a broth micro-well dilution method for activity against multiresistant clinical isolates of pathogenic bacteria from 10 different genera: Klebsiella, Escherichia, Proteus, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pseudomonas, Enterococcus, Enterobacter, Citrobacter and Acinetobacter. The main compounds in the oil were carvacrol (67%), γ-terpinene (15.3%) and p-cymene (6.73%). The oil showed activity against all tested strains. MIC/MBC values were in the range of 0.78-25 μl/ml, with the exception of the strain P. aeruginosa. Microbicidal concentration for this particular strain (50 μl/ml) was the highest tested concentration. The oil showed inhibitory and bactericidal effect at the same concentration (MIC=MBC) for all but three strains. © Versita Warsaw and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2009. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/11918 | ISSN: | 1895104X | DOI: | 10.2478/s11535-009-0027-z |
