Essential oils have been largely used for their antibacterial, antifungal and insecticidal properties. Thus this study evaluated the in vitro antibacterial activity of essential oils from lemon and lavender on 30 bacterial strains of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus either isolated from animals (cows and sheep) or obtained from reference strains provided by the Biotechnology and Animal Reproduction from the Laboratory of the Institute of Veterinary Sciences from Blida. The sensitivity of the strains was tested in vitro by aromatogram, using the two essential oils separately as well as their associations. Our results showed that lemon essential oil had a bacteriostatic effect on the tested strains of E. coli, while a high percentage of them was extremely sensitive to lavender oil, and more than half ones were extremely sensitive to the oil blend at a concentration of 100µl/disc. As for S. aureus, all the tested strains were extremely sensitive to the two essential oils as well as to their association. Lavender and/or lemon essential oils proved effective against strains of E.

Maniania Copyright © 2014 Asgar Ebadollahi et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Utilization of synthetic acaricides causes negative side-effects on nontarget organisms and environment and most of the mite species such as two spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, are becoming resistant to these chemicals. In the present study, essential oils of fennel, Foeniculum vulgare Mill., and lavender, Lavandula angustifolia Miller, were hydrodistilled using Clevenger apparatus and chemical composition of these oils was analyzed by GC-MS. Anethole (46.73%), limonene (13.65%), and -fenchone (8.27%) in the fennel essential oil and linalool (28.63%), 1,8-cineole (18.65%), and 1-borneol (15.94%) in the lavender essential oil were found as main components.
