“…Ghardi et al (2010) recorded sensitivity of an S. aureus strain to the effects of L. angustifolia essential oils, which was stronger than the sensitivity of E. coli and P. aeruginosa strains. Adaszyńska et al (2013) tested field-grown essential oils of the same cultivars, yet the 'Ellagance Purple' oil did not show activity against P. aeruginosa, while the growth inhibition zone for oils isolated from 'Munstead' and 'Blue River' was 9.5 mm and 10 mm respectively, which was lower than in the present study. Different antimicrobial activity may be caused by the use of different P. aeruginosa strains.…”

In the study, micropropagation of three varieties of Lavandula angustifolia was developed, and the appearance of trichomes, antioxidant activity of extracts and antimicrobial activity of essential oils isolated from plants growing in field conditions and in vitro cultures were compared. The study evaluated the number of shoots, and the height and weight of the plants grown on media with additions of BAP, KIN and 2iP. The greatest height was attained by the lavenders growing on MS medium with the addition of 1 mg dm -3 2iP -'Ellagance Purple'. The greatest number of shoots was developed by the 'Ellagance Purple' and 'Munstead' plants growing on the medium with 2 mg dm -3 BAP. The highest weight was attained by the plants growing on the medium with the highest concentration of BAP -3 and 5 mg dm . Moreover, the present study determined the influence of media with the addition of different concentrations of IBA and media with a variable mineral composition (½, ¼, and complete composition of MS medium) and with the addition of IBA or NAA for rooting. The majority of the media used had a positive influence on the development of the root system. The longest root system was observed in 'Ellagance Purple' growing on the medium composed of ¼ MS with 0.2 mg dm -3 NAA. All the examined oils exhibited activity towards S. aureus, S. epidermidis, P. aeruginosa, E. coli and C. albicans. The majority of the essential oils isolated from the plants propagated in vitro exhibited stronger antimicrobial activity than the field-grown plants. The plants propagated under in vitro conditions demonstrated considerably higher antioxidant activity as compared with the field-grown plants, which was determined using the DPPH, FRAP and ABTS assay.

“…The findings were lower compared to the current study (Adaszynska et al . ). Besides that, another study in India reported linalyl acetate (47·56%) as the major components of the lavender oil which was absent in the present study (Verma et al .…”

“…The lack of research effort on this part could be due to linalool being often found as the most abundant compound present instead of linalyl anthranilate (Adaszynska et al . ). Linalool (1,6‐octadien‐3‐ol, 3,7‐dimethyl‐), a terpenic alcohol, being one of the main components of L angustifolia essential oil (34·6%), was previously reported to cause increased permeability not only to the negatively charged membranes but also to fungal cells (Alviano et al .…”

Membrane disruption and anti-quorum sensing effects of synergistic interaction between Lavandula angustifolia (lavender oil) in combination with antibiotic against plasmid-conferred multi-drug-resistant Escherichia coli

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the mode of action of the lavender essential oil (LV) on antimicrobial activity against multi-drugresistant Escherichia coli J53 R1 when used singly and in combination with piperacillin. Method and Results: In the time-kill analysis, a complete killing of bacteria was observed based on colony counts within 4 h when LV was combined with piperacillin during exposure at determined FIC concentrations. Analysis of the membrane permeabilizing effects of LV on treated cultures through their stability against sodium dodecyl sulphate revealed that the LV played a role in disrupting the bacterial cell membrane. The finding is further supported by scanning electron microscopy analysis and zeta potential measurement. In addition, reduction in light production expression of E. coli [pSB1075] by the LV showed the presence of potential quorum sensing (QS) inhibitors. Conclusions: These results indicated that the LV has the potential to reverse bacterial resistance to piperacillin in E. coli J53 R1. It may operate via two mechanisms: alteration of outer membrane permeability and inhibition of bacterial QS. Significance and Impact of the Study: These findings offer a novel approach to develop a new option of phytopharmaceuticals against multi-drug-resistant E. coli.

“…Despite the popularity and long tradition of lavender use, studies on individual aspects of its biological activity are continued, both in vitro and in vivo (Kara & Baydar, ). Lavender essential oil (LEO) has antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antidepressant, sedative, hypnotic, analgesic and anti‐cancer activity (Adaszyńska, Swarcewicz, Dzięcioł, & Dobrowolska, ; Carrasco, Tomas, Tudela, & Miguel, ; De Rapper et al., ).…”

The aim of the study was the evaluation of the antimicrobial activity (in vitro) of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) essential oil (LEO) and the effect of its addition to the drinking water of broiler chickens on their production performance. Antimicrobial activity was determined by establishing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) using a series of microdilutions. Bird experiments were carried out on a commercial farm on 300 Ross 308 broilers. One-day-old chicks were randomly assigned to three experimental groups of 100 individuals (five replications of 20 individuals each). In the control group, chickens received drinking water without added essential oil throughout the rearing period. In the LEO and LEO groups, from 1 to 42 days of bird life, the LEO group had 0.2 ml/L of essential lavender oil added to the drinking water, while LEO had 0.4 ml/L added. The results of the experiment showed the antimicrobial activity of LEO and its positive effect on the production results of broiler chickens. Application of higher concentration of essential oil (0.4 ml/L) significantly affected production results (BW, FCR, WCR-p < .01). No differences were observed in FI, WI, F:W and mortality (p > .05). In vitro studies indicate a significant effect of LEO on the inhibition of microbial growth. These results encourage further studies on a larger scale that will confirm antimicrobial efficiency and define the mechanisms of action of Lavandula angustifolia essential oil and its individual components.
