Antimicrobial Activity of 12 Essential Oils and Filtrates from Aromatic Plants in Vitro

Abstract

Abstract: This article used the water and steam distillation methed to extract 12 aromatic plant volatile oils: Flos Caryophylli, Cortex Cinnamomi, Fructus Anisi Stellati, Bullbus Allii, Herba Menthae, Semen Myristicae, Cymbopogon winnteriaus, Herba Pogostemonis, Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Rhizoma Zingiberis, Herba Houttuyniae and Herba Schizonepetae. The antimicrobial effect of the plant oils was studied in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Saccharomyces cereviseae, Aspergillus flavus and Trichoderma viride. The experimental results showed that all the plant oils extracted showed the inhibitory effect for the six microorganisms, especially Bullbus Allii、 Cortex Cinmamomi、 Herba Pogostemonis and Flos caryophylli.

Key words: volatile oils, steam distillation, antimicrobial test in vitro
