Abstract:This study aimed to evaluate the bactericidal activity of Myrtaceae foliar volatile compounds against strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO-1) and Burkholderia cenocepacia (ET-12). Although these bacteria are clinically important to human health, they, along with other bacteria (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae), also have a high profile of antimicrobial resistance associated with bovine mastitis. The chemical composition of volatiles found in Myrtaceae foliar volatiles was… Show more
