Abstract:
:Basil essential oils, including basil sweet linalool (BSL) and basil methyl chavicol (BMC), were screened for antimicrobial activity against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts and moulds using an agar well diffusion method. Both essential oils showed antimicrobial activity against most of the micro-organisms examined except Clostridium sporogenes, Flavimonas oryzihabitans, and three species of Pseudomonas. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of BMC against Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas fluorescens in TSYE broth (as determined using an indirect impedance method) was 0.125 and 2% (v/v), respectively; the former was not greatly affected by the increase of challenge inoculum from 10(3) to 10(6) cfu ml-1. Results with resting cells demonstrated that BMC was bactericidal to both Aer. hydrophila and Ps. fluorescens. The growth of Aer. hydrophila in filter-sterilized lettuce extract was completely inhibited by 0.1% (v/v) BMC whereas that of Ps. fluorescens was not significantly affected by 1% (v/v) BMC. In addition, the effectiveness of washing fresh lettuce with 0.1 or 1% (v/v) BMC on survival of natural microbial flora was comparable with that effected by 125 ppm chlorine.
