Chemical composition and antibacterial effects of essential oil of Majorana syriaca against food-borne pathogens and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Original language description
The aims of the study were to identify antibacterial effects of essential oil of Majorana syriaca against food-borne pathogens and against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and to determine chemical composition of the essential oil. The essential oil of Majorana syriaca was tested by the modified diffusion method for testing of essential oils in vapour phase [1] against 6 strains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), which were obtained from two hospitals and one standard strain of methicillin susceptible S. aureus ATCC 25923 (MSSA). 5 of 6 strains of MRSA and the standard strain were inhibited in concentrations 0.0083-0.033 ?l/cm³ of air. Only one of the MRSA strains was not inhibited by the essential oil in these tested concentrations. Further, the essential oil was tested by the same method against 2 gram-positive and 3 gram-negative foodborne bacteria. Gram-positive: Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644; Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. Gram-negative: Escherichia c
