In vitro antifungal activity of essential oils obtained from officinal plants against dermatophytes.

E O Lima1, O F Gompertz, A M Giesbrecht, M Q Paulo.   

Abstract

Thirteen essential oils were isolated from officinal plants and tested in vitro against dermatophyte strains isolated from patients with dermatophytosis. Of the tested oils, those obtained from Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Ocimum gratissimum, Cymbopogon citratus, Eugenia uniflora and Alpinia speciosa were found to be the most active, inhibiting 80% of the dermatophyte strains tested and producing inhibition zones more than 10 mm in diameter.
