近年来,精油(EO)越来越受到研究界的关注,和肉桂的EO,广藿香,天竺葵因其抗菌作用而受到高度认可,抗真菌药,抗病毒,和抗氧化作用。由于这些属性,它们已成为有价值和有希望的候选人,以应对全球威胁的抗菌素耐药性和其他疾病。同时,研究揭示了有关物理场(磁和电)和激光(MEL)暴露对种子萌发的影响的有希望的新结果,植物生长,生物量积累,以及EO的产量和组成。在这个框架中,本研究旨在探讨MEL处理对肉桂的影响,广藿香,和天竺葵EO,通过专门检查它们的组成,抗菌性能,和抗氧化活性。结果表明,磁性影响提高了广藿香EO对单核细胞增生李斯特菌的效力,美国肠炎,还有铜绿假单胞菌,而通过电和激光治疗增强了肉桂EO对单核细胞增生李斯特菌的抗菌活性。所有暴露都增加了天竺葵EO对白色念珠菌的抗真菌作用。任何处理都没有改变抗氧化活性。这些发现可能为更深入地了解效率铺平道路,行动机制,以及EO的利用,为进一步探索和应用提供新的见解。
In recent years, essential oils (EOs) have received increased attention from the research community, and the EOs of cinnamon, patchouli, and geranium have become highly recognized for their antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antioxidant effects. Due to these properties, they have become valuable and promising candidates for addressing the worldwide threat of antimicrobial resistance and other diseases. Simultaneously, studies have revealed promising new results regarding the effects of physical fields (magnetic and electric) and LASER (MEL) exposure on seed germination, plant growth, biomass accumulation, and the yield and composition of EOs. In this frame, the present study aims to investigate the influence of MEL treatments on cinnamon, patchouli, and geranium EOs, by specifically examining their composition, antimicrobial properties, and antioxidant activities. Results showed that the magnetic influence has improved the potency of patchouli EO against L. monocytogenes, S. enteritidis, and P. aeruginosa, while the antimicrobial activity of cinnamon EO against L. monocytogenes was enhanced by the electric and laser treatments. All exposures have increased the antifungal effect of geranium EO against C. albicans. The antioxidant activity was not modified by any of the treatments. These findings could potentially pave the way for a deeper understanding of the efficiency, the mechanisms of action, and the utilization of EOs, offering new insights for further exploration and application.
