“…EOs include terpenes, aldehydes, phenolic, terpenoids, and other aromatic constituents that have demonstrated antimicrobial activities [ 99 , 100 , 101 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 , 113 , 114 ]. EOs mainly contribute to the disruption of the bacterial cell membrane and inhibition of the efflux pump responsible for certain AMR in Gram-negative bacteria [ 100 , 105 , 114 , 115 , 116 , 117 ]. Other documented modes of action include inhibition of the peptidoglycan layer synthesis of bacterial cell walls by binding to PBPs for Gram-positive bacteria [ 105 , 114 , 115 , 116 , 117 ].…”
