“…Its stem and branches are quadrangular. The leaves of this plant are [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] mm long, oval, blunt, entire, margin revolute, thick, smooth, dotted with many oil-glands, paler, pubescent beneath. It blooms flowers from June to July.…”

“…The essential oil was useful to prepare various commercial products mainly as antimicrobial, and antioxidant agents have also been reported [8,9] . Extensive clinical studies have been done and reported by several scientists on this plant species and showed that they have very strong antibacterial, antioxidant, antifungal, insecticidal and anti platelet activities [10,11] . The researchers showed that they also have anti infectious, gynaecological effect and contractile activities of the smooth muscles [12] .…”

“…Their efficiency against a large variety of pathogens and food-borne germs has been proven by recent investigations [11,13,14]. Several of the studies [1,15,16] indicated the sensitivity of Gram-positive bacteria, while others [17][18][19] have shown expressed sensitivity of Gram-negative bacteria.…”

Filtrates of a water extract of commercially available garden thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) were used for studying its possible bactericidal effect on Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, the causative agent of swine dysentery, by agar-diffusion technique. Five of the six studied Brachyspira strains have proven to be sensitive and one moderately sensitive in the in vitro tests. It was concluded that water extract of garden thyme possesses inhibitory effects against B. hyodysenteriae. In vivo experiments are needed to check the validity of this conclusion.

“…Further, Gill & Holley (2006) and Devi et al (2010) also reported that essential oils disintegrate the cell membrane causing the major alteration in cell permeability, could lead to the leakage of cell constituents and subsequently death of F. oxysporum as observed during present study. The changes in the electron flow through the electron transport system inside the mitochondria damage the lipids, proteins and nucleic acid contents (Arnal Schnebelen et al, 2004) of the fungal cells. The essential oils could also hassle the depolarization of the mitochondrial membranes by decreasing the membrane potential, affect Ca 2+ and other ion channels, reduce the pH and also affect the proton pump thereby affecting the ATP pool (Yaoon et al, 2000;Burt, 2004).…”

In the present study, eight different essential oils (Basil, Citronella, Neem, Turmeric, Eucalyptus, Pipermint, Palmarosa, Lemongrass) were tested for their antifungal activities against Aspergillus niger and Fusarium oxysporum. Result of the study revealed that all the tested essential oils showed fungicidal properties against these two test pathogens. Among the eight essential oils tested, Citronella oil showed maximum antifungal activities and this was followed by Lemongrass and Pipermint. The MIC value of the oils ranged from 0.97-500μl/ml. The Minimum Killing Time (MKT) of the oils varied from 0 min to 5hrs, at room temperature. Fungicidal activity of the oils retained even after treating at 100ºC for an hour and on autoclaving (121ºC and 15lb pressure for 20 min), which indicated thermostable and barostable nature of the active components in these oils. When the effect of commercially available synthetic fungicides were studied it was observed that both the pathogens were resistant to copper chloride 50% WP and Carbendazim 50% WP (upto 500 ppm) whereas, the essential oils killed the pathogens at a very lower concentrations and observed to be fungicidal in nature.
