Phytogramme® - EFFICIENCY EVALUATION OF ESSENTIAL OILS Alerta
A product of RESALAB
Pressures are now being felt, in the interest of the community, to reduce the usage of antibiotics. At the same time, there is renewed interest in alternative solutions, including combinations of certain essential oils, in order to produce a synergistic effect of enhanced bactericidal action. The Phytogramme® is comparable to a conventional test for sensitivity to a range of antibiotics, instead using plant-derived substances. It is an in vitro method of measuring the capacity of a product based on essential oils to inhibit bacterial proliferation, making it possible to test the sensitivity of the microbes of interest to various solutions. The method involves measuring the diameter of the circle in which growth of the bacterial strain is inhibited. The larger the diameter, the greater the product’s in vitro effectiveness. The Phytogramme® method is repeatable and reproducible over time, whatever the bacterium of interest, and whatever mixture of active ingredients has been included in the product’s formulation. In view of the toxicity of some essential oils, use of the method is restricted to persons who have been trained in laboratory techniques.
