Abstract: This work reports antimicrobial activity of oregano (Origanum vulgare) essential oil against several bacteria in sausage. The in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for 9 selected aerobic heterotrofic bacteria. The antimicrobial activity of distinct concentrations of the essential oil on the basis of the highest MIC found was tested in a food system comprised of fresh sausage. Batch food samples were also inoculated with Escherichia coli with a fixed concentration and the time course of… Show more

“…Entre as bactérias Gram-negativas, apenas E. coli foi inibida pelo óleo. Busatta et al (2007) estudaram a atividade antimicrobiana do óleo essencial orégano (Origanum vulgare) contra várias bactérias patogênicas, como Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella choleraesius, através do método de difusão em disco, e verificaram que a Salmonella choleraesius apresentou maior halo de inibição (29,0 ± 0,08 mm) que as demais cepas testadas.…”
