| description | The increase of the bacteria resistance has aroused the interest in the use of essential oils as
antimicrobial sources. With that, the main goal of this paper was to evaluate the antibacterial activity in
the essential oil from the leaves of Eucalyptus globulus in bacteria that causes hospital infections. The oil
was first tested in the concentration of 8%, from which were performed dilutions until 0,0625% in order
to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The oil showed inhibition action when faced
with multiresistants bacteria, with only one exception from the Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with the
smallest MIC to Staphylococcus Aureus oxacillin resistants, what it comes to conclusion is that the
essential oil represents a new therapeutic source against hospital infectious bacteria. |
