ABSTRACT
Objective: to assess the chemical composition, antibacterial sensitivity and the
in
vitro minimum inhibitory concentration of essential oils from plant species
Origanum vulgare L,
Origanum vulgare ssp y
Lippia alba Mill cultured in the North of the Department of Bolívar (Colombia), obtained by hydrodistillation and by
microwave radiation-assisted hydrodistillation.
Methods: essential oils were extracted by distillation and microwave radiationassisted
hydrodistillation from the leaves; relative density at 20°C, refractive
index; solubility of the essential oils in ethanol (70% v/v) and optical rotation were
all determined. The chemical composition was assessed using gas chromatography/
mass spectrometer The event was perfomed over three bacteria involved in the
development of acne:
Propionibacterium acnes ATCC 11827,
Staphylococcus aureus
ATCC 25923 y
Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228. For the purpose of
determining the antibacterial sensitivity and the minimum inhibitory concentration,
oils were diluted up to reaching the desired concentration (1000-50 µg/mL) using
broth microdilution method, and microplate reader for the quantification of bacterial
growth.
Results: Yields ranged from 0,04 to 0,16%, depending on the plant species and the
extraction method used. The sensitivity test results showed that the bacteria were
more sensitive to the essential oil oregano "white border" (
Origanum vulgare ssp)
obtained by both methods of extraction; in addition, this oil showed the greatest
content of oxygenated monoterpenes, with known antibacterial activity, such as
carvacrol and thymol.
Conclusions: the essential oil of oregano "white border" (Origanum vulgare ssp) is
considered as promising for the control of the bacterial component of acne vulgaris.
