“…In addition, citral is the main constituent of the essential oil of lemongrass and has activity against free and intracellular forms of T. cruzi parasites (Santoro et al 2007a). Essential oil from L. citriodora has also demonstrated activity against other microorganisms, such as Candida albicans (Teixeira et al 2005) and Helicobacter pylori (Ohno et al 2003). Previously, some oil samples tested in this paper were analysed against fungus and viruses (Meneses et al 2009, Mesa et al 2009).…”
