The objective this stud was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of essential oils (organic vs. conventional) of Origanum vulgare L. in the action against Candida albicans, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The inoculation of rhizobacteria (environmental (ME) and Bacillus subtilis) potentiated the antimicrobial action.  The essential oils of Traditional (organic) cultivation presented antibacterial action and antifungal, while the essential oil of conventional cultivation (NPK) showed no any antibacterial or antifungal activity. It was concluded that the formulation of vermicomposting and the use of rhizobacteria are potential technologies and tools for family farmers and traditional community in the cultivation of orégano.

Preliminary research has been conducted on the antimicrobial activity of n-Butanol extract of forest honey (Apis nigrocincta). This study aims to determine the antimicrobial activity of forest honey from Selayar Regency on the growth of test microbes, using the method of solid dilution with the test microbial Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Vibrio sp, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Candida albicans against n-butanol extract from forest honey (Apis nigrocincta) at 1 mg/ml. The results obtained showed that n-butanol extract inhibited the growth of bacteria Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Staphylococcus aureus. To estimate the compounds that provide antimicrobial activity, the TLC-Bioautography test is performed. Obtained the best results from the separation of compounds by TLC using Chlorophorom eluate: Acetone (3: 1). The TLC-Bioautographic test results showed that the spots with an Rf value of 0.29 gave activity to Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus epidermidis, and gave positive results on the appearance of flavonoid compounds.

This research aims to determine the antibacterial activity of Curcuma xanthorrhiza leaves and rhizomes essential oil with different distillation time of 2 hours, 4 hours and 6 hours against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The essential oils produced then separated by thin layer chromatography (TLC) with n-hexane: toluene: dichloromethane 1:8:1 as the mobile phase. The result shows that on the first two hours distillation gave the highest yield compared to the next two hours or four hours. Based on TLC chromatograms, the highest content of compounds found at 4-6 hours distillation time. TLC bioautography contact was used for antibacterial activity tested on chromatogram and the clear zone appears on it indicates the spots were active as antibacterial activity against both bacteria with Rf values of 0.35 and 0.49 for rhizomes, rhizome essential oils 4-6 hours distillation time as the most significance active.

Present study involves the study of the chemical composition of the essential oils extracted from the leaves by gas chromatography and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry of Lippia multiflora harvested in the regions of Kétou, Savalou, Bohicon and Mono and tested by the well diffusion method against pathogenic microorganisms. The essential oils studied are terpene compounds, aromatic compounds, aliphatic compounds and other natural substances. The inhibition zone diameters determined allowed us to evaluate their degree of germ sensitivity of the strains tested. Essential oils extracted from Lippia multiflora harvested in these areas have the most pronounced antimicrobial activity. In total, the essential oils tested have different and specifically a degree of sensitivity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Proteus mirabilis A24974, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa except that harvested in the Savalou who does not have no degree of sensitivity on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This work paves the way for food preservation with extracted natural substances and also the formulation of natural antimicrobials for this fact.

Devido ao aumento da resistência de patógenos humanos e animais aos medicamentos atuais, pesquisas por novos antimicrobianos têm sido incentivadas, principalmente por meio de plantas medicinais. Eugenia uniflora L., conhecida como pitangueira, é popularmente utilizada com diversas funções terapêuticas, justificando estudos nesta espécie. Assim, os objetivos deste estudo foram avaliar a atividade antibacteriana “in vitro” de extratos de folhas e cascas de Eugenia uniflora L. sobre Escherichia coli e Staphylococcus aureus. Para as etapas de triagem fitoquímica e microbiologia, foram utilizadas as metodologias usuais nessas áreas para obtenção dos extratos e avaliação da atividade antibacteriana com uso de controle positivo e negativo. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que no extrato das folhas foi verificada a presença de saponinas, flavonóides, alcalóides e taninos, enquanto na casca foram obtidos apenas saponinas e alcalóides. Os extratos da folha e da casca foram capazes de inibir o crescimento de Stapylococcus aureus apenas, promovendo halos de inibição de meio de 19,4 mm e 14,4 mm, respectivamente. As análises permitiram concluir que os extratos apresentam metabólitos secundários interessantes e de grande potencial antimicrobiano e que esses extratos foram capazes de inibir apenas as cepas de S. aureus, sendo resistentes às cepas de E. Coli.
