Abstract

This study was conducted to look at the antimicrobial synergistic effect of blended oil into the target skin flora. The essential oils used in antimicrobial test were 100% eucalyptus (EU), lemon (LE), lavender (LA) and four blended oils, EU+LE, LE+LA, EU+LA, and, EU+LE+LA in ratio of 1:1 and 1:1:1 respectively. As a result, LE showed the highest, LA showed the lowest antimicrobial activity among single oil group. In blended oil group, antimicrobial activity of the EU + LA showed significantly increasing effect than the sum of the antimicrobial activity of the single oil. However, the antimicrobial effects of the blend of three oils did not show any synergistic effect. This result showed that the interaction between the chemical components constituting the oil than the number of blended oil seems more significant on the synergistic effect. Therefore, blending essential oil based on scientific evidence becomes more necessary in the future.

본 연구에서는 피부상재균을 대상으로 단일오일의 항균효과를 살펴보는 동시에 2가지 이상의 오일을 혼합한 블랜딩 오일이 실제로 상승효과를 일으키는지 탐색해보고자 하였다. 항균실험에 사용된 에센셜 오일은 100% 유칼립투스(EU), 레몬(LE), 라벤더(LA) 오일이었으며, 2가지 오일 블랜딩의 상승효과를 알아보기 위하여 EU+LE, LE+LA, EU+LA을 1:1의 비율로, 3가지 오일 블랜딩의 상승효과를 알아보기 위해 각 오일을 1:1:1 비율로 혼합하여 배지의 표피포도상구균에 적용한 후 항균 영역 값을 평균 비교하였다. 그 결과, 단일오일에서는 LE이 가장 높은 항균력을 보였으며, LA는 가장 낮은 항균력을 보였다. 2가지오일 블랜딩에서는 EU+LA의 항균력이 단일오일의 항균력의 합보다 커 상승효과를 나타내었다. 그러나 3가지 오일 블랜딩의 항균효과는 아주 낮게 나타나 상승효과를 나타내지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 블랜딩 한 오일의 수 보다 오일을 구성하는 화학 성분들 간의 상호작용이 상승효과에 더욱 중요한 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서, 본 연구를 토대로 에센셜 오일 블랜딩에 대한 과학적 증거 마련이 더욱 필요할 것이라 사료된다.
