Abstract [eng] |
This study investigated the impact of the essential oils Levandula angustifolia, Thymus vulgaris and Melaleuca alternifolia in vitro on the microscopic fungi Geotrichum sp., Fusarium sp., Phoma sp. isolated from the human skin. The most efficient of all three studied oils on species of fungi were thyme (Thymus vulgaris), and the least was lavender (Levandula angustifolia) essential oil. Fusarium sp. and Geotrichum sp. were not very sensitive to pharmacologically recognized fungicides in Melaleuca alternifolia oil. The study showed that different species of dermatophytes are specifically sensitive to particular oils that they come into contact with. . |
