Investigation of the Antibacterial Activity of Different Pelargonium Graveolens Essential Oils Sold in the Market
Abstract
Objective: Pelargonium graveolens is a medicinal plant belonging to the Geraniaceae family. It is rich in essential oil. In this study, the antimicrobial activity of 5 different commercial Pelargonium graveolens essential oils was tested and compared.
Methods: The disc diffusion method was used for antimicrobial activity determination.
Results: Four essential oils were found to be effective against the gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. One of the essential oils did not show any effect against any bacteria.
Conclusion: It has been observed that the essential oil of Pelargonium graveolens is especially effective against Staphylococcus aureus, and the herbal products available in the market do not show the same effect.
